[16HD117]

Psst...It's not me! I'm takin' the pics! Hoist! 8-)

Psst.....Not talkin' about that pic.  I was referring to the reflection in the transmission cover of your pic (IMG_0676_2.JPG) of the dip stick.

Ride safe,

Jorge

[Hoist!]

Thanks Sky, Twin, John, Dogols, and Jorge, appreciate the comments. Yeah, I love that bike!

07hd119, man you guys don't miss NOTHING! Thanks for noticing! Yeah, that would be me in my sweats and cas. knock-around shoes after pulling the bike out in the morning, to take pictures for you guys before riding! I guess all that chrome is doing its job. I better be a little more careful. You never know what else the mirror might reveal! Hoist! 8-)

Thanks Woody, I'll look up the P/N s for you, but everything's in the Touring Section of the HD catalog if you want to see pictures of everything. The aux lights are the Halogens to match the Headlight. You need to buy the Aux light mounted signals to mount there. The handlebar signals don't work. I had the dealer install the whole set-up pre-delivery. I didn't want to mess with it in the winter. How's it going with yours? Hoist! 8-)


Added: Woody and anyone else interested, the parts list for the lighting and some other mods:

K&N A/F HD-0800 (approx $50); HD 53988-07 ($54.95 List) 2-up luggage rack/tour-pak detachable hardware kit; HD 69227-04A (222.44) Aux Light Bracket (from FLHXstyle for FLHR)for detachable windshields w/ HD 69228-04 ($45.62) smoked bullet turn signals, HD 69622-99B (29.90) [highlight]frenched-in passing lamp trim ring, HD-68208-98A ($67.95List) halogen lamps and 69235-04 ($7.21) hardware kit; HD 69627-99 ($26.16)  frenched-in headlamp trim ring (to match passing lamps); [/highlight]oil temp/level dipstick; *True-Track; *HD 63698-02 ($27.42) braided S/S crossover line kit; *HD 63020-04 ($31.36) Braided SS Fuel Line; *HD 62809-06 ($21.56) fuel tank fitting cover; *S&S SPO Mufflers( approx $400) and *PCIII USB (approx $375). I will be testing it to see if the TD's will be necessary as well. If the heat's OK, I'll use the stock headpipes, If not, I'll Dyno it at 1K mi with the stock headpipes and then again with the TD's on. I'm real curious to see the difference. If the heat's OK, I'll just Dyno-tune it that way at 1K mi and leave the stock headpipes.  
 
I hope I got these right. Doublecheck the parts catalog.

Howie,
Great minds think alike.  The frenched trim rings just add the right touch to those bland looking lights the MoCo puts on.  I guess it's like exhausts, they do that cuz they know those are one of the first things we're going to add/change.
Cheers [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif],

You got it Red! You have to buy some type of retaining trim ring to add the Aux Light kit anyway. grc recommended them to me, so I can't take all the credit. I thought that I might as well do the headlight  at the same time. They also make something similar for the bullet TS, but I'm not sure if I'm adding trim rings to the TS yet. Hoist! 8-)

Howie,
Look at my turn signals and you'll see that I put them on.  That'll give you a good idea if you want to add them, as to how they look.

Red, your bike looks awesome! Looking at it, I think I like the minimalist look without them for the SERK. Things are more open on the SERK. They look great on your Glide though. Thanks Red! Hoist! 8-)

Howie,
Glad to be of help.  Like mufflers, it's always better to see how they look/sound before you buy them, to decide if you want them.

Hey Gene, thanks for the info on the Tranny gears. I have my Redline ready. I'll be switching to the M1VT, RL SPH, and RL MTL when I get the other stuff done. Hopefully this week (weather sucks again!). I also figured that would quiet it down some. The pipes are supposed to be for those cagers! Hoist! 8-)

BTW, I like the black starter. Sorry, no CSSC here!

Fork lock and [highlight]lower fork cover[/highlight].

Howie, my SERK came from the MoCo with the chrome lower fork cover in place.  Yours didn't?

Yes it did Bob, If you look close, I added 66058-01, Chrome Fork Bracket Cover under the lower fork cover. You can see the seam where it goes under the lower cover, but it covers up the rest of the open area behind the fork nicely! Hoist! 8-)

Hoist nice mod to the scoot, thanks for the pics.
