Dam ben .... that's a good lookin bike!

Mine will never be that show quality but I'll be through messing with it in about two weeks. Waiting for my starter. Having a hard time finding parts for a Late 1984 so I'm just having what I've got rebuilt.

Amazing what you can buy aftermarket these days. I've bolted on:

14" Wild one Chubbies
Drag specialties mirrors with signal lights built in
Harley hand controls and grips
Harley foot controls and pegs
S&S V111 - 120hp motor
Kuryakyn air cleaner and horn cover
Cycle Shack M series exhaust - one of the few that will fit around a kick start

and waiting on the electric starter.

Paint job next year maybe. After 24 years of looking at it, I'm kinda fond of the old paint.

still need to install rear signal lights and tachometer.


I'll post pics to compare with previous post, but it won't compare with bens ride for pure pretty.

I'm ready to RIDE !

Installed my new chrome lower sliders and a new chrome oil tank today. Made a huge difference to the bike. Monday I will be lowering the front 2 inches once the kit gets here.

Almost there,
Currently waiting on stock Rake trees to replace the 3* ones (neck will be 1" higher, wheel will be 2" closer).. I am putting chrome cover on the moved Coil.
the Coil Relocation + Rear fender extension really opened up the rear of the bike, it is gorgeous


Check the area behind the rear cylinder

Stunning!

That space makes a huge difference behind the rear cylinder.

Just sent you a PM.

the DK Customs Kit was the best bang for your buck .. when it comes to look, mixing it with the HD rear fender extension (which is an easy install and not expensive too) made a huge difference.. people look at it and they just say waoo... that is amazing.

down side, I spent 15 minutes cleaning 10 years of grime and dirt piling on top of my Transmission cover that was hidden under that seat post and coil.. and now WAOO.. it looks awesome.
