Finally finished my winter mods and accidentally posted the pics in the GD section so I'll repost them here for the Custom crew.

Here's the before, last October.



And the after.











New bars, tach, cables, LED gas gage, brake line, pipes, intake, nostalga round AC cover w/matching horn, Tmax w/Autotune, and dash extension.
Even got in a short ride and nothing fell off or came loose. Now I have to clean off all the dirty fingerprints and last years bugs.
And yes I know the frame protectors on it. I left them on because after my short ride to get gas I put it back on the jack. I still need to add the oil cooler.

tony2772,
Like that seat, who's is it?

wow looks real good there citro, that front end looks very individual now, and also that electric cable sleeves a nice touch. one thing i can really recommend just to finish of that front end are some chrome fork sliders. really makes a difference in my opinion. nice job[sm=smiley20.gif]

Looks great Citoriplus; yours keeps getting better. I put a round AC and fork brace on mine thiswinter also.I'm still not done though; was planning to post the new pics in a week or two when the last new pieces are on.
Where did you get those frame protectors?I need those!

Viking,
The tach is an HD mini PN=68953-04 and your right the frame protectors are another HD part that's normally avalable at the dealers for less than $15.

Blackdragon thanks for the pics they look pretty good, how do you like them.

Hi Tony.
Could not imagine riding with out them. The only thing I disliked about the softails was how cramped they felt in the leg department. Best thing since sliced bread. lol

I am having my Chrome front fork sliders, Chrome axle spacers and chrome front floating rotor as well as progressive springs with SE Heavy Duty Fork Oil installed by my local bike shop on 1 may.(first available time) I have been trying to get time to do but just got sick of waiting so have booked in. This should finish my bike for the time being. Untill I can save some more cash one day.

Will post a new set of pics once all installed and washed and polished.

Would still like a 6spot chrome PM front caliper though. And maybe chrome the rear wheel or get a new one and.........

Looks good Citoriplus.
The Tacho sits in those bars real sweet.
The dash panel really helps show the tank off. Do U get much reflection from it.

Where did you get that black braided cable for your wiring, was looking for myself and could not find any.

Just a few questions on your bar bag. Looks Good.
Do U need the rack for it and how does it attach.
How much can U put in it.
What dimentions is it.

tony2772,
Like that seat, who's is it?


The seat is HD Badlander that I bought off of Fleabay for $63, it was removed from a 07 Night Train. The back rest I found in the HD catalog specificly for when the factory seat is removed and the sissy bar is retained. I also installed the Easy Brackets, very nice product.
