Anyone relocate the front turn signals? They look a bit strange just hanging out there under the bars. Maybe relocate closer to the headlight or integrate into the mirrors?

Picked my denim black one up on Tuesday morning. I added a standard FL black gloss engine guard and Rush pipes for now to give it a little sound until I get better pipes down the road. I want

am planning on getting the black auxiliary light bar and the smoked lenses tomorrow and installing.

This is my first Softail, everything else I have owned was either a Sporty or Dyna. I am really loving the ride on this bike.

Loving the Slim, and going to soon trade in my Dyna Superglide for one, hopefully after a test ride in the next few weeks. The Slim is selling very well here in the UK...I counted 4 of them at the montly Ace Cafe-London Harley night just the other day!
Wished HD hadn't had to drop the Cross Bones but the Slim is a pretty close second as a replacement, with the narrower rear tyre retro-bobber look and with those great vintage Hollywood bars.

The Harley designer responsible for the Slim has a background in proper old style 'Billetproof' hot rods, and I think has done a pretty good job with the Slim.

What is the brand and part number of that quick detach windscreen?

Thank you for the help!

Congrats on your guys slim purchases.. I was looking at them really close at the dealer on sat, I love the look of them and now I can't stop thinking about it.. If I had actual money, its probably the bike I would buy, but I'll probably be on my dyna for a few more years though, at least its paid for..

Slims and night trains are making me think bad thoughts.. Debt wise..lol..

I apologies to all subscribers, but this post is intended for BroTim. I couldn't seem to send a PM, must need so many posts.

man, you wasted no time with it. Looks great. The only thing I am not sure about is the headlight. But, the great thing is its your bike not mine, so who gives a **** what I think....great job

which seat and frame cover are you running on there? I want to do a rigid style rear fender on the crossbones. I am looking at the custom chrome lucky f*cker but not sure on which frame cover and seat to run.
