Default Newest pics of my xbones progress

Alright she has been a work in progress but just got done with the most recent set of mods. So far here is a rundown of what she has done:

Black out motor and tranny covers
Screaming eagle intake
Rhinehart Crossbacks
16" Nash Pudgy Midget Gimps
Shaved front signals
Chopped front fender
Mammoth Choppers solo seat
Chopped Fatboy rear fender
Bullet rear turn signals
2" lowering kit
Custom shifter, brake and handlebar grips
Side mount license plate
Flipped mirror
Smoothed Tank
Gloss black paint without logos or pinstripes
18" front rim with 140 tire is ordered (Ride Wright sent me a rear instead of a front but being great about fixing the issue so i cant complain to much)

Done almost all the work myself to cut costs so if you have any questions shoot them my way. The biggest problem ive had so far is trying to get info from other people who love to brag but hate to help.

Let me know your thoughts, the good, the bad, the ugly.... Thanks Guys!!!

Holy chit! That's the best lookin' Crossbones I've seen, you hit the nail right on the head with that one.

You addressed everything I've said I would, if I had one of those. Rear fender looks much better, seat is cool, bars are awesome, and all the other little details are sweet! Perfect blend of chrome and black, that's one bitchin' ride. Good job!

really really nice work ! .. Looks alot better w/o the pinstriping.... I think adding one of those older harley badges will look good ...
The pipes look great , but imo doesnt fit the "old school theme" ... but if you like them thats all that matters ... you should be proud showing off at bike night !

Yeah im with you on the pipes. I like them but im having problems finding different old school pipes that wont melt the wifes leg when she rides. So for now ill stick with these till i find what i really want. Been going back and forth on putting an old 50's or 60's style badge on but cant decide. I like the less is more approach with the paint. Thanks for the posts guys...
