I ordered the apes today and hopefully will have them on in a couple weeks.

Pics to follow

now you've confused me...... you say you have an 09 Springer that has a 200 tire and a 96 inch engine? 09 Springers come from the factory with a 110 engine and a 240 rear tire. did you change the engine and tire?

then your signature lists you having a Cross Bones - is this what you're calling the Springer?

inquiring minds want to know.

He almost certainly refers to that Bones as his Springer. I know I would. That X-Bones stocker on the tank must not be enough to make that CrazyBastid call it anything else than what it really is. A springer.

Must be a retired HD Mechanic or something crazy...

What a CrazyBastid

Isn't the Cross Bones a Springer. The one I saw had a springer front end?

It really stood out.

First thing that comes to mind is John Milners Hot Rod in American Graffitti for some reason.

I really prefer the classic look over the 07 but that is just me.

That Yellow Pearl in the Sun is just something else.

Ordering the Wild One Chubby Apes today so let the mods begin.

Thanks Guys!!!
Oh my...That Yellow with a set of WO Apes is gonna be badassness.

Cant say I have seen that yet. Cant wait to see some photos of it done up proper like!

For what its worth I too would have picked the yellow bike, price and fatass fender be dammned.

Nice Kill on thy Screaming Yellow Zonker!
