Kandy decided she wanted to personalize the bike a bit and has chosen the HD Diamond Ice Multi Fit collection for several upgrades. We'll be adding the Derby Cover and Timer Cover from the collection. First mod was taking the gas cap cover and custom fitting it to the air cleaner. Perfect fit and one of the coolest mods I've done on either bike. Will also be getting the Wings Billet horn cover and adding another Diamond Ice gas cap cover to that.

Poto of the air cleaner.

Had a little photo shoot tonight. Several shots turned out great. This one shows the air cleaner mod.

Finished adding the Diamond Ice bling pieces to Kandy's bike. Air cleaner side with the gas cap piece fitting perfectly over the air cleaner badge and the timer cover installed.

Primary side with the new primary cover, one of the small stick-ons on the inspection cover ('cause they don't make one yet) and the billet horn cover with the wings painted Candy Cobalt and another gas cap cover installed to give it that custom look. Pleased with the outcome. Kandy is very happy as well. Wouldn't be surprised to see another custom piece here or there. The guage trim rings they make don't fit on the Deuce so I'm gonna have to come up with something creative on my own.

Don't know Spyder. Came with the bike, thought it was stock.

Latest improvement on Kandy's Deuce. Tank badge from I believe a 2011 CUSE. Thought it would look cool. Kind of on the fence. Like the chrome. If I had had it before the paint job, probably could have had the paint coordinate with the badge better.

pic 2 Badge has some serious curvature so you can't just put it anywhere on the bag. I liked this spot best based on the limitations.

Got the bag on the bike and it looks much better.  Badge looks smaller and goes well with other chrome items.

Found a few more ways to add some bling to the bike. The CVO logo on the console had a bar/shield that was exactly the same size as a blinged out version I found. A bit of silicone and viola!
