If you are serious about taking the wrinkle black pieces off let me know, I'm about to either PC mine or buy new ones.

I was thinking the same thing. But I also remember some new black lines and AN fittings that became available in the last few years that weren't very expensive. I'll have to call a buddy of mine that owns a performance shop and see what those are.

I got the signal mounts figured out using some all thread and a couple nuts. I am moving them to the lower bolt holes on the upper fork cover. What have you guys that have done this before done with the wiring? I am thinking of drilling through the cover and use a small rubber wire gromet (sp) right behind the hole where the all thread will go. I have seen some other applications where they use hollow studs to run the wires, but the mounting hole runs flush up to the forks so the wire wont fit through there.

Annnd.. if you're interested in them, especially since you have a 2010, and I have a 2010, they ARE for sale because i'm replacing them with a different exhaust. only 1500 miles through them and are in very good shape. Soo..let me know if you're interested and maybe we can haggle something (if those are something you'd choose to go with)
Thanks! going to order the plate bracket tonight.... As for the pipes turns out the person I bought the bike from put the V&H slip on on it. I hate how the passenger foot peg comes our between them still but I may do a few other things before new pipes.
Do you have your new exhaust or are you waiting on it? It may not be too long before I'm looking. Send me an email with what you want for them maybe I will change my mind on waiting! Rjohnson@worldoferhard.com

Thanks!

Jim, hold out for something with an M in the model name. I've heard those are the ones with flames on them

For my driving style and habits, I'd be content with something between a 750i and a 760Li... depends on how many dead hookers I can fit in the trunk

Well in that case they also sell Land Rovers. A lot more room and you can get in the backcountry to unload the dead hookers.

Believe it or not despite the name on the front of our building there are 5-6 Harleys parked in employee parking on every nice day! Can't speak for the Land Rover store do not get over there much...
