Those lights came with a mounting bracket at the time.

Mine was a complete kit I ordered here. It wasn't exactly plug and play, but was an easy as could be expected. All the hardware was included, I just had to connect the harness to the battery and tie the relay into the headlight switch.

Gold coating (TiNi) on the forks will not fade for a VERY long time. Anything anodized gold will show sun damage after a year or two depending on exposure.

Default Radial brakes

road glide :

Raised suspension
remote resovor rear shocks
Upgraded inverted forks
Stainless 2 into 1
Fast back lucky Dave's seat
relocated gauges

I would like some mid controls







Road King:

But carbon fiber rims



Did you have to extend the brake line front. To add the radial brake

With all the benefits of fat front wheels....wondering if swapping out my Enforcers with Impeller Harley wheels (17" front & 16" rear) from the Limited models would significantly increase handling performance on my Special?

Anybody ever seen Performance Bagger builds using this wheel size setup?

I have an 17' Roadglide Ultra, that I've been building up. I can't really speak to the handling, as I haven't compared a similar Special. Guys out there do say a 17" rim is good for that. What I can say is when I see guys with specials complaining they can't find in stock tires for their bikes, I have no problems getting them for the Ultra. Having more sidewall helps with bumps too.
