bike looks awesome! i'm thinking about going with the RSD tracker fender as well, how was the install, did you run into any problems, and what else besides the fender, wheel and struts did you have to buy?

Thanks.. I had no issues whatsoever with the install but then again I sat at home while the boys at the shop did it for me!
Yeah, so the tracker fender kit is the actual fender and the struts.. Depending what wheel you already have but the point is to put a 200 tire on it. Seat was new to fit also, and despite what RSD say on their website, the ' vintage' appears to be the one that fits (RSD please clarify why the Boss diamond stitch doesn't fit despite appearing on their bikes!?!?). Seat is manufactured by mustang.

I have to say that the fender kit looks awesome on the bike!

Lookin' good. Would you happen to have a pic from the rear?
IOW, what did you do with the rear turnsignals? Did you use the HD relocation kit? Thanks for any insight.

Yes the HD relocation kit was used... I actually like it better than the stock set up. Turned out pretty nice. Even without the bags on it still looks clean and matches the bike IMO.

That sissy bar is awesome. Where did you get it and how did you install without relocating plate and lights? Thanks

A sissy bar hasn't appeared in this thread for four or five pages, as far as I can tell. Which one are you referring to?

With a steady hand, a little patience and a dremel, and you could use the HD factory sissy bar without the relocation kit. I'll post pics when I get home...

Of course Harley could produce them in a way that doesn't need a relocation kit......but that would be bad for business!
