both awmllc2000 and stoner are right on the money,you can save alot by doing the shaping and fitting yourself.i didnt have hard bags to start(rk custom)so my parts:extended bags,lids,fender,tank shrouds, nacelle,extended nacelle spear,bag hardware,ect were around $2300.my buddy owns a body shop so he hooked me up with my paint job(chamelion and pearl,changes lots and lots of colors in the different lights)

Looks great! I'm actually getting ready to do the same thing. I've never done any kind of fiberglass work in my life and I'm too worried about screwing it up, so I'll probably let a pro do the shaping and fitting for me. I can't wait to get it done. I hope mine turns out as good as yours!

Hasn't happened yet, but I just finished the project and rode it straight to the stealer to have the 20K done on it in time for the long weekend. TBD if it will be a problem dragging- but I doubt it. I originally asked Jacob at baddad and he told me not to worry. I think the floorboard will drag first...
