Hey Mike,

I went through the HD spectrum paint program. My first selection was a CVO only pearl blue and vivid black, with a back up option for the flame blue pearl (from the Rocker paint scheme) and vivid black. They approved the latter, I guess because the moco wants CVO paints to be special to those models.

It took a month for approvals, then 11 weeks for them (Calibre a 3rd party contracted by Harley) to get the paint done.

It was worth the effort and wait!

I know a guy on here Aaron (DrWalkinboner) has the 16" RSD apes with stock risers but he had to do some kind of mod.

Maybe we'll get him to respond to this thread if he hasn't gone off and gotten a glide yet..............
No no glide yet and probably never will have it. Just don't ride enough to justify it. After Sturgis I haven't touched the bike at all. A friend of mine deployed so I've been riding her CBR600RR in the mean time.

As far as the stock risers go, I think I got some Drag Specialties shims or something like that for mine. They're just 2 pieces of metal that are rough on the inside to grip the bars. One piece goes on top and one on bottom. I can put up pics if you need them. Harley ordered them for me when I got my bars so I'm not quite sure so you might wanna call them up and see if they have any in stock.
