Installing my apes, stretched bags, new wheels and maybe a chrome motor kit? I'm debating taking scotchbrite to my polished primary, cam cover, rocker boxes, etc. Brushed look on these items or chrome???? Regardless, more $$$$

Finish up the paint by getting the side covers done and maybe chroming a few more bolts. And just to keep me away from messing with it much more, I'll start working on a 63 ****** Jeep I just got....

Thinking about swapping out my current wheels for a set off a Sportster Super Low. Probably buy a set of heatshields for my pipe. Still trying to decide on bars, but am leaning toward a set of 14" Westcoast T-Bars.

I'm going to leave my primary rides (02 Ultra & 01 RK) alone for once this year. I just got an 01 Road King Police that I was able to buy cheap enough to allow me more freedom to get creative with it and not loose my *** if I get tired of it want to sell it later. A few of the mods will be; Carlini Gangster Apes, foot clutch / hand shifter, 200 rear tire, 02 up swingarm upgrade, sta-bo bushings or some similar, 18" front wheel of some sort, probably some motor work, "de-police" it, new paint job, and who knows what else. Every time I start a new project, I say I'm going to take pictures but some how forget to. This time, I'm going to at least try harder to take pics along the way lol.

Now there is a depressing though, WINTER mods.

2.5" speakers (for sure)
Stage II (depending on tax return)
Dropping the rails/fringe or going with more fringe.
12-14" bars (if i can decide on a set)
Taking off driver backrest hardware
Solo Seat
Tombstone tail light (if I can find one I like)

Some what ifs running through my head:
New rims with a 21" front (If I found the right deal)
Extended Saddlebags (funds permitting and if I decide for sure on my fringe dilemma)

my winter project is going to begin in late november. step 1, covering my harley in the shop cause i got everything done to it finally and not gonna do anything but wait till spring on my streetglide. my winter project is putting a late model 5.7 hemi and attached 5 speed automatic trans into my 1924 dodge coupe, replacing the old 509" mopar and 727 auto trans. while i'm at it, i just got the correct wall thickness of 2x4 rectangular tubing so i can build a new chassis. now i gotta try to remember how to use my tig welder.
