I have to agree with you there, let's see some pics of all the new lo brothers and sisters bikes with some mods, make them yours and be proud and show your bikes off

Anyone scrape (sp) their pipes on their Lo's. I scrape my boards all the time, but I was doing a tight turn yesterday two up and scraped the rear part of the heat shield on my V&H pipes. Did not think it was possible, but now I need some new shields.

BTW: Some good looking bikes still popping up in this thread...

Sorry - not a Lo, kind of a step child. It's just a Fatboy that I put this together a year before the motor co came out with the Lo.

Default Waterproofing Swing Arm Bags

Any of you come up with some creative ways to seal the slits on the back of the swing arm bags? I got caught in a rain storm on the way home from work this week and water got in my bags from the back end of the straps..

I really dig all these blacked out scoots. They come off with an attitude.

and as far as sealing up the swingarm bag goes, i can't help that either, i never had mine leak even when i was using the straps.. now i have it hard mounted with a backplate, so the holes aren't exposed

Scraped the pipes? Wow. Did you scrape the floorboard mounts too? That sucks. I have the same pipes and no scrapping issues yet. As far as the pipes go. I don't really scrape the boards all that often either so I'm not sure what that worth. Is your bike stock height? If not I'd say the extra lowering was the problem. Where the BSS sit though you must have been really close to scraping a floorboard mount. Maybe try dialing more preload into the shocks when riding two up. That might fix the problem
