Mano sweet looking rear end. I considered going your way but somehow the slick smooth rear end was a much bigger influence. Great pipes too. Are those the Rineharts 4"? I have those and they are awesome.

Hey Rogzy.....I agree about the smooth rear end but over here our cops are a little tougher than on the other side of the globe.

The pipes are the factory pipes with factory end caps/tips. Yours are chrome where mine are the black ones.....Nope do not want to swap them....lol. :)

I too wanted to go with the curved plate frame but when I seen that it did not light up the whole plate I stayed away from it. So since i was stuck because of our laws here with the pig nose light for me this was the best solution. The light from Badlands is really bright which i love. It can really be seen. I decided to leave the original licence plate light because it is led and lights up the plate. I added the CVO medalion which is the same one as the 2011 CVO Road Glide.

Overall I am very happy with the way it looks now. :2vrolijk_21:
Where did you get the CVO medallion from, it looks really good on there ?

From the dealer. It is the same one that is on the 2011 CVO Road Glide.

Nope.....but when you open it up it does have a nice rumble. On one hand it is nice because you can hear everything around you and the music is really clear but on the other hand it is just a little too quiet. I will be installing the Fullsac Stage 1 Sleeper kit in the winter.

I am already considering changing my pipes to something more quiet. I hear the music up to 100 mph but beyond that I get nothing. But I am very reluctant to let go of my 4" Rineharts

My guess is that it's more wind noise than the Reinharts at 100mph. ;)  At that speed, I can't really enjoy music or any other distraction anyway.  spyder

This is what it looks like. :2vrolijk_21:
Got the Kuryakyn low profile LED light today & Kuryakyn curved license plate frame.  Decided that I want to keep the stock license plate light, like you have on yours, can you tell me how you fitted it without removing the stock license plate light.
Many thanks in advance, Paul.

Sorry for the late response but i was away. Anyway i do not think you can put the curved license plate on without removing the plastic frame which holds the plate. The hood/light and the plastic frame are all is all one.

I know a member on this site (flyin-r) did it...I remember him saying it was quite a effort, but it obviously can be done.  You could shoot him a PM and he'll be able to give you the details on just how he did it.  spyder
