Ordered the end of August, 2011, delivered April 2012 and out for the first time on the weekend and lovin it!

Major Mods so far:

1) Yaffe 10" Monkey Bars, Power Mirrors and poly bushings. Had Paul do bars/mirrors in satin black to match the stock look and switch housings.
2) Headwinds "Revolver" Black Spots & Turn Signals wired to spot switch. Match the muffler tips and goes with the stock air cleaner look
3) Klock Werks Windshield 8" DARK SMOKE
4) Remove Rear Antenna and install new/latest Boom Audio Hidden AM/FM/WB Antenna
5) BAL (Bad Ass Light) Tail Lamp...the U.S. version of the rear end is definitely a lot "cleaner" looking but I don't mind some extra light back there, so a BAL light it is.
6) 4-Point Docking Hardware Kit & Covers - Chrome
7) Oil Level and Temperature Dipstick with Lighted LED Readout - Chrome. Don't rely on this for oil level but handy for checking level on trips and temps.
8)Various chrome covers

Still have a few custom touches "inbound" but not yet here...will post when received.

Any questions, fire away.

With the 10" Monkey Bars, did not need to change any wiring, clutch or brake cables...all stock.

There is actually quite a bit of wiring in there from Harley...buddy with a CVO Road Glide changed to 14" Wild One bars and there was no need to change/add wiring, but he did need new clutch/brake cables.


Love the Monkey Bars!

I have the 14" Monkey Bars on order for my Skunk.  They should be getting in any day now. 

I'm off shore at work, hopefully in 3 weeks when I get back the new bars will be on the bike along with the powder coated switch housings, brake and clutch levers and resivor, and my new mirrors.

I spent two months debating which bars and which height.

Your Skunk looks  awesome. Can  you  give me  the  part #'s for  your spots  and  signals. I checked Headwinds  sights. Did  you  buy  them as a set? Keep up  the  great mods.

Yes, I bought them as a complete kit...2" spotlights (35 watt halogen lamp, clear lens)  and 1 3/8" turnsignals (20 watt halogen lamp, amber lens), all mounts, Style: Mariah Rocket Revolver.

From my invoice:

Kit #: i) 2-2434-21M-11ZA
          ii) W-0002 (Misc Part) Spotlight hookup harness 4 pin connector to male spade terminal

Your Options:

1) I went with the standard 35 watt halogen lamp...you have the option to go to a 50 watt halogen lamp if you choose;
2) Standard is clear lens for the spotlight and amber lens for the turn signal...you can go clear on the turn signals (or amber for the spots if you want)  ;
3) you can also go LED's on the turnsignals as well;
4) I chose the Mariah style for the spot and turn signal "buckets"...you have the option of choosing the "Bradley" bucket or the "Vampire" bucket, examples of which are shown on Headwinds website.

Hope that helps and happy "modding" :)

By the way, you will also need:

1) Badlands Load Equalizer as you are now using halogen lamps (or LED's if you so choose for your signals):
    Part # LE-03-SRCVO;
2) You will also need a Badlands Dual Intensifier Hi-Lo Module (Part #IHL-02) if you want to make your halogen signal lights
    from Headwinds both running and turn signals.

All available from Headwinds...make sure you tell him that you have a CVO as the wiring for the load equalizer from Badlands is different for a CVO as opposed to a standard Road Glide.

thanks for  all  the  info.  I  was  just  at a  rally  in Prince Edward  Island Canada  yesterday when a hot  looking  chick pulled  up  beside  me with  her  new  Skunk. Both  she  and  the  Skunk  looked  awesome.  One  problem, she  went  on  and  on  about  her Skunk saying  it  was  so RARE and  there  were  no  others around  like  it BLah, Blah, blah when  all of  a  sudden a  brother  from Mass pulled  up beside  us  with a Skunk. this  is a   small rally  and  it  was  quite  something  that  these  2  Skunks  arrived   ther e  within minutes  of  one  another. I  never  heard  anymore  from  her the  rest  of  the  day.These  CVO's  are  awesome.  I  had a 2009 CVO Roadglide and  it  can't  hold  a  candle  to  my  new  Maple  Metallic. Thx  again and  keep  up  the  great moddin.

Had the Razor-Pak backrest pad redone to match the seat and stiching and yes, added a skull to go with the theme.

And for inquiring minds, what can you hold in that Razor?

Jacket, raingear, cold weather gloves, some cleaning supplies, sweater, tire pressure gauge, camera and a few other things...works for me.
