Looks good. Sometimes I wish I had more places to put crap when I'm on a long ride.

Finally got her home today, Haven't gotten to snap pics yet and I have drill this weekend, so I probably won't get to it until Sunday or Monday. Got it home and flipped the mirrors, took off the front reflectors, and I put on a smoked lens kit for the front anf rear that I got from ebay. It is awesome. While its not my Road King, it was a fun little ride.....

Those bags ae kinda growing on me & I think would work so I wouldn't have to take the back pack all the time. Couple of ?? please. Where did you get them and what are they called/model number. One more ?? do they mount somehow or just slip under the seat? Other than that your Iron's looking sweet.

I noticed that alot of us Iron riders make almost immediate changes to our rides & I love looking at all the different looks the each bike can have nbased on these changes. One change I noticed is that most remove the fork mounted reflectors and the little red one under the rear fender. Reason I am mentioning this is that mine when I picked it up it did NOT have these reflectors on it. Only reflectors on the bike are the little red on the side of the rear fender, which I plan to just leave as they are small & out of the way. I mentioned this to my parts guy and he said - wow you removed them already? When I told him it came that way he said it must have left the plant that way because they could not remove them. My bike was the very first Iron they got and I purchased it right after they rolled it into the showroom. Question is this, did some of the early ones not have these reflectores installed? I don't plan on putting them on nor is it a big deal I'm just curious if anyone else got there Irons minus reflectors. BTW that's my bike the first day I saw it in the showroom minus reflectors.

Got mine today! Finally, seems like forever. Also got my PC V a couple days ago and today my new bars came in. Great quality bars. Much less money than RSD bars. Thanks Road 6 Customs. My pipes, a/c, forwards, and rack should be here soon. When it's setup I'll try to post pics.

Anyone just replace the mirrors with the long-stemmed ones instead of flipping them?

They are Rush heat shields, I bought them when I bought the slip-ons.

I was going to buy the buckshots, but they were backordered from HD. I'm happy how it turned out.
