Is that a Kuryakyn plate frame?
Nope it is the HD plate frame. 80 something bucks.

Got my flush mount gas caps installed today, SWEET! So easy to see the blue dots for level and looks so much better

Here's a shot of my bars moved up about 2 inches. Looks better and feels better for me. I rotated them until the bars are "inline" with the forks. I think I am gonna get a set of the nacelle bolts and washers and have them powdercoated black



Gas Caps. Need to find a black ignition cover/housing too!



Nice day on the water downtown Annapolis

Does the air wing sissy bar require any additional mounting hardware or does it just mount directly to stock setup? Thanks

It mounts directly to the 4 point HD system. Mine came with the 4 point mounts installed, assume they all do? I really like the stuff from Ginz Choppers. They make some really nice sissy bars and you can get them that mount to the HD 4 point system as well. Cost alittle more, but definitely unique.

Thanks Firebolter, bike looks awesome. Mine is on a truck as I type this from York, Pa. To Burleson, Tx.
Scheduled to arrive at dealership Tuesday. Same color. Luv that Olive gold. The Nightrod I'm trading is also Olive gold.

Flipped the mirrors around today, and I like it! I can see perfectly and it makes the front end of the bike look cleaner

Got my 11" Road 6 Customs Holey Rollers on now. Install was not too bad and all stock wires and lines worked. I'm sure 12s might have worked too, but these were a bit smaller in overall width (tip-to-tip) than any others I found. Rode all day with them and the comfort difference was amazing?
