[QUOTE=ScooterFLSTFB;7576974]what are you using to cover the bolt heads on your rear fender struts? I want to hide these bolts on my bike as well.

I just painted mine with Model paint. Very easy and cheap to do. Loosen them slightly then paint the heads. Make sure you paint the edges including a small amount of the underneath the head so it won't show when tightened. I used Glass black to match the fender struts. I have done this with a number of the bolts and it really makes the bike look a lot better.

Does anyone know what powder coat HD is using on the engine parts on these bikes. Cam cover, primary and heads? I love the look of it and want to change some of my parts to this finish.

If you sell the seat, I would be interested. How much do you want for it?
pm sent.

Default Quick Intro

Hey guys (and a couple gals),

I just took the last few days to read this, and only this, thread here on HDForums... Wow, there's a lot of information and a lot of nice scoots. Cheers to all my soldiers, marines, airmen and sailors out here in the Middle East with me. Thanks for what you guys do, I see it every day!

I picked up a 2010 Lo in Gloss Black after having seen pics, brochures and read a little bit of this forum back in June. I conducted all my business through email as I'm in Iraq, and didn't work with the dealerships that didn't respond. My local dealer set me up with the Lo, Sundowner Seat and 103" stage 1 big bore for 17.5 OTD. Called in the down payment in June (First phone call to the dealer after 39 emails!), flew in from Iraq in July for leave, went from the airport to the dealership, signed and rode off with my new baby. They forgot to put the security on it, so they said ride it while you're here, drop it off before you leave. I dropped it off on my way to the airport back to Iraq and they've had it ever since. They graciously have been storing it for me while I'm here.

I got about 4k worth of parts in my wishlist on the MoCo website; figure it's already at the dealer, might as well trick out the looks :P

I'm gonna black it out, probably do the bars Dave has, and do a touring setup and a crusin' setup. I'll probably do some LED bulb replacements as well; I like LED. I'll probably also do an intake/exhaust/cam/tune package from Fuelmoto since they're only about 2 hours away from me.

I'll ask the dealer to send me pics as they put stuff on and post them up.

Roll on.
