The Lo thread on the third page? Say it isn't so. I am fixing to find out how good Easy Brackets customer service is. I bought there Lay down license plate/turn signal relocation bracket last November. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that the powder coat was bubbling up in a couple of places. I decided that didn't really bother me too bad since it was blocked from view by the luggage rack. Washing it the other day I noticed a place on the side that was actually pealing off and showing some rust. I'm hoping they will replace it. The test will be if they will go ahead and send me a new one without receiving the old one yet. I ride my bike every day so I want to avoid any downtime if I can. Well see how things pan out.

I love those pipes. I hear they do not work with stock pegs though. What did you have to do to get your passenger pegs to work?

The pipes come with a right side peg relocator. You can order a left side relocator for an additional $12-$20 when you roder pipes... very easy install on the pegs... just righty tighty lefty loosey and a torque wrench and your all good to go.

My OL rides and she said she can not "really" feel the difference in the height of the new peg location -

Just wanted to post up some crappy cell pics of my latest mods. Removed the tailights, and ran them into the new tailight from Custom Dynamics. Put on the new Kuryakyn license plate holder, and painted the chrome tailight holder gloss black to match the paint on the bike. Probably the easiest mods you can do, and IMO really cleaned up the back of the bike. Lot's on the list to do once snow falls here in MI, but that's it for now!

Well I have to say that Easy Brackets backs their product all the way. I talked to them today and they are sending me a new laydown license plate bracket. They don't even want me to send the old one back or send them pictures to confirm the damage. Apparently there's a known issue with some of the stuff from their old powder coater. That's pretty awesome that they are willing to back their products that much. On another note I know it's been commented on about how few Lo's anybody see's around their area. That used to be the case for me but now that are at least three or four where I work. I think mine has the most mods and that number may fluctuate since they may belong to students who will eventually graduate and move on. Still it's cool to see other people into the Lo's besides the guys on here.

Thanks man, I called my dealer and he told me the fenders would fit, but the tank wouldn't. Bummer.

Need some advice from some Lo owners. I made a thread about it in the forum, but maybe you guys can provide more info since you own the same bike. So far I've narrowed it down to 2 types of bars: the Wild 1 Dresser Bars, and the Big Buffalo bikini bars.

Wild 1 dresser - 34.5" wide, 4.5" tall with 12.5" pulllback
Big Buffalo - 36" wide, 8.5" center, 14.75" pullback

My goal is to get some more pullback and comfort without going with apes. Opinions on these? Also, will I need longer cables/wiring? I hear the '11-'12 models are a bit stingy on length (although my clutch and brake cables seem pretty long).
