Looks good. The color reminds me of the Kawasaki green they had last year.

I like the transformation. Interesting choice of handlebar. Love it.

Looks great Joker!! Big fan of green!

Quick question...what make/model hand guards are those? Could help extend the late fall riding season here in the north.

I would've never noticed if you hadn't said that but now I can't unsee it. Guess I'll have to do something to it haha thanks.

It would look good to have forwards but I have more control of the bike with floorboards than forwards and that's what I'm building towards: a bike that can be ridden hard into the corners as well as a long distance rider. I had forwards on my fat bob and we're nice but swapped to switchback floorboards and they were a better all around choice.

Thanks man, they are coffin cut hand guards from jd customs and fabrication. They work great for wind and rain protection. Worth every penny and really cool guys to deal with.

I thing you've done an outstanding job so far. I think the painted (to match) fairing lower would help set it off and a set of CVO style lower saddle bags would finish it off. The straight stretched bags don't follow the lines of the bike to me.

I've got a lot I'd like to do to my bike. but, while people up north are putting their bike's to bed for the winter this is prime riding time in South East Texas.

I've inquired several time at the HD Dealer about ordering a bike with no emblems and not pin strips and the answer is always no.

I do consider my bike somewhat special, first year of the Rushmore FLTRU and the last year of the Twin Cam.
