Default Harley Davidson Forty-Nine
Guess I can't call it a 48 anymore. Got my new/used tank yesterday. I like the way it looks. Put my $3 tank lift brackets on, its about 1.5". I still need to relocate the ignition and coil and do the wire tuck. I'm also thinking of doing a full exhaust, but cannot decide what would look best. Any suggestions?

Check into a D&D Bobcat Exhaust. Do a search and you should find a couple pics of them on a Nightster.

That's making me wish I had went with the 48 instead of the Custom. The extra grand to upgrade the tank and put a back seat on for my son killed it for me.

You're ride looks great!
