Which IMHO serves no purpose besides the aesthetics. They could have gone with pipes like the heritage's and gave us a bit of freedom as to the bags we could mount. I found that changing the pipes is a prerequisite to mounting any functional, yet good looking bags.

I agree, I just sold my Deluxe and went back to a RK because of that very reason. It would have cost me a mint to swap out the pipes, then add a decent of bags and a windshield.

Sorry, but it gotta say something, I know there is nothing you can do about it, you have a super nice bike but your tag looks like a billboard.

If you are referring to the plate, then yes, i definitely hate the way it looks, but keeping it for later.

Just put the plate below the tailight. That would take away from the distraction of the large plate.
