HKSigman...dragbars turned downward, and a 2.2 gallon frisco tank, always liked the small sportster tanks on the big twins..makes the engines look huge.

Tartarus...I'm 5'11 , kinda slumped in the picture I posted, and that
c&c seat is pretty low. Don't think I would be happy with anything over 14's

I pulled the seat and checked the PC5 connections, all seemed good, I looked the bike over and found nothing out of place. So I turned on the ignition and crossed my fingers, started right up but acted like it was loaded up for a moment. I got on and rode her home all seemed fine, I saw oil leaking onto my cam cover when I got home, so I took the AC all apart and it was just full of oil. Oil was even laying in the intake tract.
This arlen mess AC is going in the garbage soon as I order a Doherty with the power vents. I'd rather spit the oil on the ground than try to feed it to my cylinders.
Ranting done. Dayum these bikes here are lookin HAWT! 2D you still have space between your trips and sliders *chuckle*. Lundee those pipes look fantastic on your bike period!. Story those rotors are the bomb!.

Funny you would mention that... I have a set of Power Vents that have been forgotten about since last summer. I called Doherty Machine to ask a few questions about the product. I spoke with Tim Doherty. I must say he is one of the most professional, informative, and easy-to-talk-to persons I have dealt with in a long time. My opinion is to go with your first plan and get a set.

The problem i see is because of the Marzocchi forks and the 18 inch rideright with the 140 front tire on the bike i think that 1 inch drags-the stock ones off the nitetrain= would look out of place on the bike.

The other prob is that there are very few companies that make a 1 1/2 inch thick drag bar and then the common width is 31.5-32 inches...

But then i wonder/question if a 27 inch drag bar would look out of proportion on my bike...

Any thoughts, suggestions, input?

Or am i just overanalyzing all this?
I would recommend BR Custom Cycle. A llot of guys on this forum, myself included can vouch for Billy. He can build anything you can draw or describe.

Welcome Dyna Mike and Eliems... Those are two good looking rides.

We got a night train ride coming next sunday on the 11th they are trying to get all the trains on the island to come out. Should make for some good pictures and I'll be sure to get some. I hear that a film crew is coming out to film us on the H3 freeway not sure what for yet... But I'll be sure to keep you guys posted.

looks like nice weather for all this weekend... Ride Safe Guys
