If you had commissioned an old master to do this back in the day, I bet you they would have painted it without the reflectors.

I am certain that the old masters were all about quiet reflection......

Default New Slim Owner

I'm a newbie here, and figured my first post should be in the thread that has provided a lot of inspiration for my build. I've ridden a V-Star 650 Classic for the past 13 years (and a couple of Hondas before that), and the plan was to FINALLY get a Harley when I turned 40 in a few years. Luck would have it that my wife received a promotion early in the summer and decided that she wanted to fast-track that plan. I was set on a Street Glide when I went in to the dealership, but as I walked past that Denim Slim in the showroom, I stopped in my tracks. Being vertically challenged, as soon as I sat on it, my mind was made up. It felt like home.

Seeing as I was going in for a bagger (for touring purposes), this posed a challenge... So I looked into how far I could push this bike to become a transformer of sorts. I wanted the best of both worlds... A bar hopper that could transform, in a matter of minutes, into a touring ride. And I'm close. The finishing touches are happening as I type and I will post the transformation when complete. For now, here is how 'Levon' looks while stripped down (ignore the shield, that came off two minutes after this pic was taken)...

I love some of the limits that you guys and gals are pushing with the Slim's back fender. Great stuff.

Two great looking bikes, I love the apes and the headlight. Thanks for the inspiration you just helped me decide on bars. Thanks
