Nice! I like the valve covers and the timing and transmission covers, where did you get those?

He probably got his from the EMD factory in France, but here's where you can order them in the US.

They used to have a US website (where I ordered my trans/cam case covers & rocker covers),
but it appears somewhat defunct currently.

hth,

What did it take to get the Road King Wheels in there? They fit the look of the bike very well.

Hello, thanks for the kind words ! Speaking about the RK wheels, I must admit it was a little bit tricky for the fitting, especially the front wheel but it turned out well with a little help from my friends ...

@deezy139 Did you end up trying the rear ones on the front? I have the same dilemma now. Thank fully i just purchases the smoked lenses and not the trim/lenses. I like the look if the visors better, but only in gloss.

Head light visor from my 02 Heritage with T/S visors. Black slot shifter & brake rods. Bar end bobber mirror. Kuryaken black hardware covers. If you look at the seat bolt you will see how I put the same style bolt in the passenger seat area, tank bib & speedo hold down bolt. Burnout rear lowering kit. 1.5". A set of LED driving light. And Some other ****.


I don't know why the S didn't come with painted strut bolts.



I used 4 of these seat thumb thingys and ran it up to make it look conformed. Love it or hated it. lol.



New S.E. Orange Plug Wires.

Such a brute. lol

Flush mount & HD Speedo/tach
Hey I noticed you have the HD visors. Did you use the matte black ones thag HD sells for the the front? Really need them to make this in gloss.

Yeah I did. They don't make them in matte for the back ones so I had to use gloss. The front headlight visor is from my old 01 Herritage. It was chrome. I sanded it down and sprayed it. I will be painting the rear visors to match the fronts one of these days.

Added 10" apes and Performance Machine grips, much better than stock for me. Trying to figure out how to tote a bag to Sturgis I took a chance and bought two bicycle seat racks from Walmart at $20 per. My 5/8" Forge LLC sissy bar is hard mounted so I wanted to hang the weight on it and could not find a rack that I knew would fit. I think it's going to work out, not perfect but functional. I'll test it out fully loaded before hitting the road the 8th.
