Wow...that's one of the nicest Nightsters i've seen...simple changes (by the looks of it), but very effective. Do you have any more photos ?

And let us know what exactly you did do to chieve this look please...

 

I really like how the headlights look! Where did you get them?

 

Lastest pictures, new brake line and cable coming soon.

 

Just wanted to check in. Starting to get pretty active again as I'm currently in project mode again.

I'd like to add that I've seen a lot of great looking bikes out there and would like to thank all for the inspirations. I also been haven't been able to log into my youtube accnt (one nightster in vegas) oh well.

Anyways don't take this image too seriously. Yes thee is a 48 tank now. It's been on for a year now. I just put the RSD Short Stack bars on yesterday when I took this pic, and i'm getting ready to run the wires internally (pain in the ***)

Things to come for this progect- paint job based off fords 1959-1962 work truck series. Head light mounting adjustment. Seat shock going back on, slammed fender unique mods. Vintage grips. Bitwell risers. Front signal relocation (arlen ness low pro kit) battery/oil cover mods, pin stripes. End result well be freakin amazing. Hopefully 6 weeks from now I will be done.


Ugh! Don't even ask. I was going through a phase, much like my long hair,flannel and shredded jeans in the 90's. I had originally got inspired by a builder who built a bike called the "Gooch" but it didn't. Come out so well for me. Also wanted to try out my shocks again with some custom struts on the fender that I made. Notice the stock bars are back on and inverted.

 

Nice paint, Slackster!

 

Haha! Looks like we got the same paint kit. Took two tries for me and learned to wet sand and buff on that project.

Streetfighter yournbikenisnlooking really raw and sick there. Good stuff

 

Here's a "retro" concept I did in Photoshop... If I buy a Nightster, I think I will attempt this make over...

 

Willie G accesories and V&H side shot pipes

 

Just browsing through some old files and ran across a series of pics that I can't remember if I ever shared or not. so here they are. unedited so I apologize for the large size but sometimes it's best this way.

Important to note that not all front ends are created equal! In my case I was always missing a bit of true balance due to a bit of incorrect rake and travel. (google rake/travel there's a theory to it) My slow turns felt a bit heavy, and after more than a year of riding like this I decided that Fuctionality would be best for me. Also important to note that using the correct springer has much to do with it. I admit I forced this particular prat onto my bike and it was something I wanted to try out even before I saw a few others. To this day....I love my stock front end..haha. trial and error. Such a rookie I am, but hey the look looks cool I guess.
