Thanks for the compliment! I did a 2 in progressive drop in the front to level the bike as much as I could since I lowered it 1 inch in the rear. But it wasn't a necessity. Here are some more shots of the bike.

Today's mods were the quick detach backrest, tail light relocation and license plate relocation.







I love the fact that everything from the fairing to the backrest is all quick detach.
A very versatile machine.

Squash,
The sissy bar is H-D 52760-11 with quick detach hardware 53932-03A.

The license plate mount is Kuryakyn 2030-0586. The lighted frame is also Kuryakyn 2030-0630.

The mount does come with a black frame but not lighted so I ordered the extra frame so the plate stays lit so as to not give The Man no reason to pull me over.

The parts came from the dealer, ordered when I bought the bike, but you can get the license plate mount just about anywhere on the web or at a local indi shop.

Slims are so cool. Can be turned into a Chopper, a Bobber, an Old Skool, a Bagger, a Unique Custom,or just left stock (like that's gonna happen much).

Looking at the pics here, it is good to know that folks see the Slim in so many different ways, with so much individuality. Love my Dyna Custom, but the Slim allows for many more options. Please keep the pics coming, and continue driving me crazy.

Lookin nice as usual, Phil. But sure would like a full side shot of the bike so we can see the total package all at once. Maybe both right and left sides.

Diggin that Kustomtech fork brace. Wish they weren't so spendy, but looks great.

Love this picture, man. Nothing like getting out and muddying a new bike up. Just make sure you spray the salt off after.
