The Sinister stretch fender is a fiberglass unit that is not an overlay. We did add a brace under the rear seat bolt and at the rear near the license plate. It is rock solid now.

The fender and the top shop bags line up nearly perfectly. We did not change anything to make them match.

The rear shocks are from my 2009 SG. So they are HD 12" air stockers.

Dan is out in Stugis now and they start their windy road rides tomorrow. I am sure he will call if he hits the bags in turns. The front is dropped about an inch on that bike also.

Bike looks sweet. It truned out real nice. Did you get the fender direct from Sinister or did you find somewhere else? I have 3inch bags nad I plan on getting a Sinster fender this winter. Glad I go to see what it looks like. What kind of lights did you use?

Here are some more pics after another tweak. This time some new pinstripes.

And some good rear shots to show how the Sinister fender lines up with the Top Shop 3.5" bags.

The lights are Radiant. Without digging out the paper, I think the sizes are 5", 3.5", and 2" on each side. I wired them together to act like two turn signals. Then wire the tailbones plug to not use a center tail light. They are run, turn, brake.

Bike looks great. I jsut ordered a Sinister fender. It is nice to get an idea what it will look like. Those lights are very bright.
