Default New upgrades to my crossbones...PICS HERE!!!

Hey guys...its been a while since ive logged in but now that i sold my mustang i have more time to enjoy my bones...i decided to spend some $$$ on new accessories and take it more to the darkside...

i took the bike to a good shop near me and will get it back this afternoon...as soon as i get the bike i'll snap some shots and post up the pics...

Parts getting installed are:

diamond black collection:
hand grips
rear brake pedal pad
shifter pegs
rear foot pegs

Dark Custom Logo derby and timer covers

Satin Black billet style rear brake lever
Satin Black billet style heel/toe shift lever

Slotted Black custom gear shift linkage

Satin Black skull hand control lever kit

I'm also getting the primary cover, trans cover, and timing cover powdercoated gloss black.

The shop is also making custom brackets to relocate my turn signals to the the springer fork. It will be powdercoated gloss black too.

One thing i have not decided on yet and i would appreciate your alls opinions is help deciding what mirrors to go with...

The two that i like and need to make a decision on are the Buckshot mirrors (satin black) or the Dome Billet style mirrors (satin black). The Buckshot one match the others a little more cause of the cuts it has but the Dome style has a more retro look since the mirror is round instead of oval...

I can hardly wait to see how the bike is gonna look!!

In about a month i am going to get some custom z bars made (about 12-14 inch) and hide the cables in the bars...same guys gonna do the work....

i will post up the bike as soon as i get it in today!

cheescake...i LOVE ur bars...i'm gonna do some like a cross between urs and SAS...z bars look awesome on the bones!!! How high did u go?

Jacobi..in due time urs will look great too!! I had mine almost a year and its not even done...always ways to customize these bikes!

After the bars, i'm thinking of going all out and getting a 240 rear tire on the x bones...we will see...wishful thinking i guess lol

But thanks for the comments guys!!

Who trimmed your stock rear license plate bracket? I want to do that to mine and use a side-mount...but I'm not good with a Dremel.
