Got the emblems off Ebay. They are panhead emblems (1961-1962 I think). They're on Ebay all the time.

I made up my mind I am going to go with Biltwell. The question?? does anyone know if I can run the frisco bar on my stock risers? I emailed the crew at Lowbrow customs but they are at the SMOKE OUT out east.

I just put the 10" chubby strip bars on my ride and they are by far the most comfortable bars and handle better than any other type bar i've tried. Good luck.


Is there a way to PM you Honkeylips??? I have some questions

Yup, I got the emblems and backing plate off EBay. They pop up all the time.

I don't know about the biltwells, but I was unable to run the stock risers on my RSD's because of side to side clearance, not so much the tube diameter.

But the real question is: El Chingon, what rear fender is that, that let you run a barebones seat????

Yeah, they are overpriced for bars, but were the exact dimensions I was looking for. Most apes are too wide for my tastes.
