Default New 48 to the Stable

Well started a new project. Added a 2013 48 to my garage. Been adding some goodies while its been too cold to ride. 14" apes, grips, mirrors, exhaust, spring seat, sissy bar. Going to get some basic pin striping done and then ready to ride. I like some of the DK stuff that is available as well,, will get into coil relocal and tank lift later on. I've attached out the door shot and what has transpired in the garage.

Congrats on the new ride!
Been super cold here too. Finally got a chance to ride today. (and tomorrow's supposed to be 60) I was at least fortunate enough to get cut off TWICE within 20 seconds of each other today. No joke. Two cars in a row. I couldn't believe it. I actually ended up kicking the second lady's car she was so close and showing her some one finger sign language. She was talking on a cell phone. I guess it's January and people aren't looking for bikes yet...? I felt bad after about kicking her car but what a idiot. Just yakkin away on the cell. No regard for anyone or anything else.
If ya get a day to get it out on the road, ride safe

It would be the harley one piece bar. I wrestled with this a little with other ones on the market but in the end this bar had the old sschool look and carried the 50 caliber holes up the bike to the sissy bar from the exhaust and belt guard.

You don't find the seat too high? I had a Rich Phillips spring solo seat and I did not liked it. I sold it for a LaPera BareBones instead.

Overall, your new 48 is looking great.
