Looks great Eddie. Man, I love my rk custom, but your is awsome. Love the horn setup and the hard bags. Are you having any issues with the bags running against the seat? I love the fairing also, but I just added apes, so until I get tired of them, a fairing is out of the picture. Could you still add some gauges to the fairing on either side of the emblem? Nice place for a clock or tach or something? Just my thoughts.

Thanks. No problems with the bags rubbing against the seats. I have had, however, some problems with them scraping on hard turns if I forgot to raise the air suspension up to my normal riding height.Cateye Customsfabricated some stainless steel skid plates for the bottom of the bagsfor me. So far I have yet to drag them after I installed the plates. I think there is a system out now that automatically raises the bike to a preset level after the bike is started. That might be worthwhile as it is probably just a matter of time before I again forget to raise to the riding height and scrape them on a turn.

I have thought about gauges in that space and saw aQuadzilla fairingwith Dakota digital gauges there. I would want the Harley analog gauges but I don't know if they are deeper than the Dakota digital or if they will fit. One of those projects for the future.
