She's off her prescribed meds, and dropped some acid or something.

The gift that just keeps on giving... Time to get the snowblower out.

I rolled mine out of the garage today to bask in the sunshine. I plan to ride it tomorrow to a dealer event.





Later this afternoon, I got tired of the look of the stock air cleaner cover and painted the center of it. Then I checked tire pressures.

Cut a little here and there, and got it fitted on.










Gonna ride with it for awhile and see how I like it.

Interesting... any plans on one that fits a '17 Sportster?

Got in 100 miles so far this weekend, and hit a personal milestone...

Tried posting this from my phone, and it ended up in the wrong thread... duh.

Today I finished the 49mm front end conversion on my 2012 XL1200C. I was able to keep my stock front fender from the custom, the speedo and indicator light module. All the items for the transformation were as follows;
Complete 2016-18 48 fork /triple tree assembly.
2014 48 seat.
2013 48 wheels.
2012 Nightster rear fender.
All in all I’m happy with how it turned out, ...a Fat tanked 48 lol
I think I’ll call it “The Custom 8”. 😁
