I fetched the chromed rack from Proplate in South Benfleet, Essex and I fitted it today.
Yes I know it's on backwards, there are reasons for that.
I wonder how many chromed ones there are in the world?
Not to be a buzzkill, but they're all over the place. Harley and Aftermarket, I bought one here for my Heritage, an HD Original accessory. But as time went on things changed.

Not this H-D Detachable Solo Rack for wider Softails 07-17 - it was only ever sold in black 53612-08A (it's now unavailable), and afaik there was never an identical chrome version - let me know if you see one. Sorry I should have explained that better. (Narrower Softails 00-06 had 53649-05 chrome and 53652-05 black.)
2 days ago ordered 2 solid mag wheels, today I changed the oil then realized I forgot the filter so off to the dealer, then to Cycle gear for a rear tire. Amazing how time flies, it's 8 years old.
Tomorrow - wash then a couple days after that detail.
Took Gaston (05 Deluxe) out for Tour of Honor run yesterday and today is the start of the Chrome upgrades, headlight replacement, fluid replacement, and paint protection/ceramic coating. Busy days for a new ride!!!
G'day Fellas.
After a 1200Km ride on the weekend I thought I'd better give the old girl a service. Penrite type F ATF in the primary, 20/60 HPR30 Penrite with a bit of MBL8 in the motor, Penrite 80/90 with a bit of Nulon Smooth Shift in the box. I also did a full brake fluid change with Penrite dot 5. I had a bit of a scare going over a killer mountain and lost my rear brake. Nearly ran up the back of a mate a few times!!
Now to wash all my oily fingerprints off!
Cheers
