At first my buddies gave a hard time about me buying a white bike. However, I thought the white, black, and chrome would look bad azz. Now they all love it and now see my vision. Great choice in the Police Edition.

The white and black is a very sharp color combo. I prefer this over a white and chrome bike.

Its not raised. Its actually the stock seat with temperpedic foam and gator cover. It settles in like a pillow when you sit on it.

How much extra is it raised, and who did the work?

Built a saddlebag stand today using pvc pipe idea from the Internet, but decided to improve it a bit and make it foldable for storage.

That’s a great idea. Their inability to stand on their own was one of the reasons I sold mine and got standard bags. The other being that I always use 2:1 exhausts and will never waste the weight on a “ghost pipe” and the cutout bags look bad with only one pipe...

i like stretched bags look, but didn’t like an idea of the ghost pipe also. That’s why I went with TAB BAM sticks and cobra headers.

got a bit too drunk on Thanksgiving and a thought of getting a SG or RG got stuck in my head. Trying to get rid of it lol

if you went down that path you'd never be able to find your bike at any gathering of more than two and live out your life in regret

well, I got sober since then. I still like my bike especially it being paid off. Tried a suoxide choppers sissy bar that my friend has on his RG. Still not sure if I like it or not considering a price tag...
