Default RSD Clip-Ons,Speedo & W/W

To get you all cought up on things, I biffed my 07' Nightster (black & silver) last June and was pretty much SOL for riding the rest of the year. The bike was fixable but decided to scrap it for a newer 09' Nightster (gloss black). Gave my wish list to my local bike shop, and the rest is history. I was able to take a lot of parts from my 07 (Joker tails, Drag Spec., Licks Shocks, 2-1 exhaust & Ness A/C)and transfer them to the 09. From there, I added RSD Clip-Ons and speedo relocator, 21" front wheel w/ Metzler whitewalls & black engine covers. This is how it sits today. Should have the rest done in a few days. Sorry for the crummy oversized pics.

Nice setup man. I'm really likin' that speedo mount. This is like the third one I've seen. I may have to get one. Along with about ten other things, lol. I'll be watching this one.

Not completely sure yet. I'm most likely going with a bar end mirror. Just not sure how it will work with the baxster grips I have.

I've thought about bar end mirrors, but always worried about the vibration factor. Anyone out there that has them, can you actually see with them?

I have a joker machine bar end on mine. It works great and does not vibrate at all.

Thanks for the info.

I see you have a bag at the bottom of your downtubes. Doesn't it get really messed up from all the stuff off the front wheel?

I had a bag on my 07 in the same spot. It certainly got dirty on the outside but everything inside remained clean. I would even keep a pair of sunglasses in there; no problems. Oh yeah; front wheel is mocked up

Looks freakin sick! Cant wait to see it all put together. Ya'll know how much I dig RSD chit! Those clip-ons are looking wicked.

What length throttle and clutch cables are they putting on?
