Here is the pic from Harley
-
Here is after I bought it in February with the sissy bar shown
-
Here are pics of what she currently looks like. I've done all the work myself with the exception of changing the exhaust and tuning it.
-
pic from behind
-
side pic to show the apes a little better for everyone
-
front the front, yes ladies and gents, those are the color matched lower fairings on her
-
some handy work to add glovebox pull knobs to avoid scratching the paint to open them
-
side view to show off the dual exhaust and the agitator breather as well as a side view of the lower fairing
-
She has the Willie G derby and timing covers along with multicolor accent lights on her and going to be adding more. August she gets lowered and some other handy work I've got planned for her. So more pics will be shared as she continues to evolve.
-
looks very nice.
i'm waiting on the chopped color matched tourpack for mine. i'll be mounting mine in the solo position, my wife rides her own bike so no need for 2 up. i've got a set of denim black lowers that i'm going to have painted. its a lot cheaper than buying new ones :D did you try using the compact filter on your heavy breather for the lowers? i understand the lowers will fit with the compact filter, but that means i have to get rid of the aluminum contrast color cover (which i think looks pretty nice).....
what is your plan to lower her?

Thanks! I looked at the compact filter for the heavy breather but the plans are to add speakers in the lowers and even the compact filter would not allow enough clearance for them to fit. Plan is to install air suspension on it beginning part of August. Already ordered kit for the rear and am contemplating the purchase of the kit for the front too.

There's nothing like Christmas in July. The bike looks great! Enjoy. :2vrolijk_21:

10" Yaffe Monkey Bars

I like the knobs, Where did you get those??

They are cool. I can't provide all the secrets behind the magic trick but all are common parts. I could make this happen to yours if you like. PM me if interested and can discuss details and cost.

Beautiful bike! Love the mods so far. Enjoy the ride and keep personalizing!
-
Very nice! :2vrolijk_21:
Did you use stock cables with the 10" Yaffes, or did you have to replace them with longer lines?
-

All stock cables were used. I altered the path of brake and clutch lines. Also found wire chaffing just under gauge housing so the alter of those lines will assist in fixing that issue from continuing.

aren't they just license plate bolts with a spacer underneath them?

It's possible to use those but have other options available to allow for the custom look to your own bike.

that gold really pops in the sun, huh?
-
Great Job the MC looks amazing. I have the same color and have a chopped TP on order....it has been 13 weeks!
-
Bike looks incredible brother, very tasteful. Now let me help you spend a little more and one mod thats free. Take some fishing line and remove those front fork reflectors. Then buy a Yaffe Lighted Plate holder and have it painted to match and you are all set. it will clean the rear of the bike even more and not that expensive. You can even leave it black or chrome if you like.. Just a suggestion. I'm jealous your bike looks amazing the way it sits

Thanks for sharing. I've been looking at the Yaffe plates for some time now but never thought about trying to get one color matched to that awesome gold. I also took your advice and have removed the fork reflectors. Thanks again! :2vrolijk_21:

10" Yaffe Monkey Bars
Did you do the Yaffee's yourself? If so, how difficult, and did you need any new cables? PS Bike looks great, on a similar path with mine (atomic orange)

Might be a little partial but love the look with the Yaffe bars on your bike.

Did the bars myself, most difficulty was on throttle side due to the volume of wires. Patience! Patience! Patience!
