...that looks cool. Nice work.

Does anyone know, or had any luck mounting one of these Lucky Sucker fenders to a Evolution era softail?

Button looking good man. My own opinion, but I reckon they look much better with out that cover or tank mount or whatever they call it. Just have that frame exposed, suits this style great.

Stal, hellbilly, ever thought of using a rocker c two up seat for a second seat option with the chopped off horns? Rockers frame is wider but with some billet spacer blocks machined up, it could work well. Well that what I'm doing. Actually eventually I plan on designing a setup like the rocker c but for these narrow softail frames that fit to the frame directly without the spacer blocks.

Ink I saw a video for that a good while back. That's been my plan but I haven't tracked one down. Also +1 on the cover. I think the bobber/chopper look doesn't need it. The ignition switch could be mounted elsewhere and the pain of hiding all those wires lol. Lookin good man.

I agree with the tank adapter. So far I have painted it black and kept the tank and fender raw. I have an older frisco style mount that Ill cut up and use to mount the tank. The ignition will be rewired and mounted under the seat with a key switch and remote push button setup.

I dig your builds man. Ive read a lot of your build thread. Im a new member but have been lurking for awhile.

The new battery is lithium and meets or exceeds OEM battery specs in a much smaller and lighter package. If you every use this battery: DO NOT USE A BATTERY TENDER!!!

Let me know if you have questions.

Looks TUFF Chris,
How is the new smaller battery working out for you?
I looked it up and it has 102 C.C.A compared to 310 what I read our motor need. I'm wanting to go with your methodology of just sticking the ECM behind the battery.

Thanks

New battery is great . the battery I am using is 270 cca and runs flawlessly. I find no hesitation in starting the bike or running lights.

Here is the link to the exact battery I am using.
