Tested my new windshield, excellent. Worth the money and effort for highway days.

Put on a my zombie performance ultra tiny riserless apes. didn't get a chance to go for a spin but I love the look. Might have to cut half an inch on each side though. to those with a later year sportster, if you want to go the clean handlebar look and don't care for the left controls, you can unplug the whole housing and do away with it. thats if you dont care to use the horn, hi beam, left turn signal, and tip odometer lol. I use this bike just to scoot around town so not too concerned about it.

Since a few folks have asked....

I got the new 'swingarm bag' bracket installed today.
I like it alot. I used zip-ties for now. Was too easy.
Took maybe 15 minutes. Will use bolts/fender washers
at some point...

Needs a good compound and wax, need to redo my wire tuck but couldn't wait to get it on. Install the fuel level sensor to work with my speedo/tach too. Hella easier than the first time I did it on the big tank. Speedo computer says I'll get about 120 miles out of it.

Not much really, I can tell that it's giving me a small air pocket, but the air that it deflects is directed at my face, this can be a good and bad thing. Little extra wind noise through the helmet ain't bad, just need a better helmet.
