Thank you guys for the comps!
Not too big of a fan of fairings though. Thought about getting the lower fairing, but not sure.
No clips of the pipe, but a ton online from other guys. I know Soapcreek has one. Rearsets are expensive, and not sure if they would hit my pipe. Still doing research on them. As for the fender, chopping off about 2" at a very low angle. Don't want to chop off too much. Can't wait for it to be done either. Been waiting over a month for my shocks to be built and shipped to me from Traxxion Dynamics.
Sorry master, bars were sold about a month ago.
Yup, they look like a gunmetal/black chrome. Didn't want to go straight black as I wanted some contrast. In the sun, they still shine like a mother.

oh hell yeah papa! man she looks sexy dude! i would love to hear that pipe, any clips of that? bars look awesome internally wired and that rear wheel is dope!!!!! great job so far. rearsets, rearsets rearsets!!!!!! they would look really cool on the bike and give you the prefect foot position for leaning into those bars and the turns. how much you chopping off the fender? i really have to get an old bike and cafe it out, i want one bad but i think my wife would divorce me i f i tried to squeeze another bike in my basement!
can't wait to see this done papa....

yeah sato makes quality **** papa but rearsets might be hard to find and you may want to look at more euro companies. did you search xlforums? i took a quick look and found a thread from a guy who installed the chainsickles. might be helpful.

Trust me, I've looked everywhere for rearsets. I even personally went to Storz shop to see if we can test fit them.
Yeah, looks like the chainsickles will definitely hit. Dr. V-twin will hook up a great price on the sato racing ones for me, so I can get them cheaper than retail. I won't change my pipe, so if I do get them and they hit, I will shorten the brake pedal so it won't hit.
Can someone out there just get the sato racing ones and try it out first before I get em? Just a thought
Here are the Satos...cleanest looking out there, come with the reservoir cap, and also come in BLACK.
