Thank you. The Forge LLC makes some awesome bars at great prices. This is an 18" but they have 24" for the same price I believe, around $170.

Mine is the taller bar from The Forge, but it has the built in luggage rack.

Question: What are those two cylinderal things beside your horn? Fans I assume. And where did you get them? Looks cool. Ever since I had the Stage IV 117 upgrade on my Slim S done, my bike runs super hot. Also that seat looks super comfortable.

Those look like the Love Jugs fans in gloss black.

I went with the Wards version (no longer available) many years ago. The MityMites closely resembles those.
Here's a pic of mine.

This fans are made by Love Juggs and they make a version now just like the Ward fans work extremely well

Just got the front end lowering kit done and the 12” apes with new cables. Recently put the 21” front wheel on too.

I'm guessing you're back from Sturgis by now. How did this rack system work out? I'm interested in setting up something similar to that.

Default Softail Slim front wheel
Anyone running 150/80/16 front tire? Will it fit instead 130/90? I know not all brands are the same in regard of tire dimensions, may be some will fit?
