put some used rhinehart's on after i had painted the end caps with BBQ paint. new end caps were a lot more money than i thought when i bought the pipes used, Put a Harley GTS radio in it this spring. really liking the apple car play portion and even the nav system that comes with it worked well (mostly). the transfer from the ride planner app worked okay, and also easy to upload to my other buddy's bike. washed the last 700 kms of bug guts off of it and gave it a good cleaning and re-applied the cerama-coat. oh and about $40 for a tank of premium. that seems to be the most expensive mod these days.
it's a stock Ford colour titanium green. used around 2005 i think on a lot of Focus and fusions. it has become my colour of choice since 2007 on my last 3 bikes
I used my bagger as a prop in a photo shoot. I was teaching my daughter to run the camera and how to properly use depth of field, framing, and lighting. She took this:
Went for a little rip this morning, came home and installed the 1-1/4 floorboard spacers and repositioned the driver backrest. Went for a test ride, the spacers really make a huge difference comfort wise.
When you say comfort, do you mean leg cramps, that type of thing, or heat, or both maybe? Make a big difference on your lean angle? I have never scraped my floorboards except on slow U turns.

I have bad hips, they cramp/ache almost immediately when riding. I only test rode for about 10 minutes but definitely notices hips felt better. I was not paying attention the heat but I would think further away has got to be cooler. I scrape my floorboards regularly so we will have to see if that changes but I do not think it will make any difference.
Painted the plastic cover w/ a couple coats of Testors gloss black, followed by a couple coats of clear. Chased the threads on the brass ferrules and then made a mesh insert to jazz it up a bit.
