nice but a bit too radical for me. But then I'm more old school.

Nice thing about a sportster is you can make it into what you want.

Haven't seen a bike with clips yet that I didn't like. Looks nice, but I'm not a fan of the headlight or seat.

Bobbing that fender made all the difference in the world. Maybe lower the tank 1"... not all the way.
