So I changed out the National cycle Mohawk windshield that was an actual Roadster specific shield for this generic $38 job. The thing I hate about low production volume bikes is the lack of aftermarket accessories. I've been able to mix match and fab everything to get this bike how I want it. It's amazing the reaction to the look of this bike, some like it, most just don't get it, but I do, everytime I ride it or look at it

I love what you are doing to that bike! Thanks for sharing the modifications with us.

Well when you say 'external breather', I thought you meant the
lines from the heads into a brass tee, then to atmosphere.
(think partially Home Depot, not to be confused with Harley Davidson)

The 'whale dick' is real Harley Davidson, which is the 'other' HD...
