Well...I guess I'm no longer bike less

HEY....it's NOT farkle....it's SAFETY CHROME. You of all people should KNOW that. :)

 

OK...so here is where I'm at so far. I'm sitting here in a hotel room so this is from memory. I am likely forgetting something but this is a fairly complete list. Now most of this stuff was on the bike when I bought it so I got very lucky there. We all know that you never get your money back out of accessories when you sell a bike but it's nice when you buy a used bike that already has most of them installed.

Well @Yammer Dan , I appreciate you posting your list. It allowed me to compare where I'm at. The following are the only things that I don't have yet. Not sure I'll do them all but here it is:

 

Baron's brake reservoir mounted tach (must have sooner or later)

SpeedoHealer (will do at some point)

Galfer SS Clutch line (someday. 2" over)

Flanders Bars (someday)

Barnett SS Throttle cables (someday 2" over)

VMAX Rear End (not sure yet, maybe someday)

Sonic Front Springs (when I need them. That is a lot of work)

No Bubs for me thank you. I got a set of Bubs with the bike. Traded them for a set of OEM RSTD mufflers like were on the '99 when you go it. Has the Harley mufflers on it now and they are LOUD. I'll enjoy them for a while and then put the RSTDs on it.

Yea, he really does a good job on these. I'm going to back spray those under the fairing soon. Just waiting on a couple of things before I split the fairing so I only have to do it once. When I have it apart, I'll remove those clear deflectors and paint them black on the backside.

 

By the way, the OEM clean lower deflectors wouldn't have been around too much longer. The brackets were cracked about halfway on both of them.
