That's about as close to perfect as it comes Crusty.

The only change I'd make to your bike would be to add an 8" Klockwerks windscreen

Nice Ride !

Thanks! But I like the wind in my face... the stock windscreen works just fine for me, and keeps that lean, mean look!

The Klockwerks adds a LOT of downforce to your front end at higher speeds AND, the 8" model DOES look lean and mean and has the added advantage of your stereo not sticking up above the useless POC the MoCo puts on the most perfect CVO ever made.

It is a matter of taste on the windscreens, I had the HD Wind Deflector on my last bike but I am running the WindVest 12" on this one right now. I like the looks of the KW but not enough to go that route.

On the bars, I have used WO bars on several bikes and love them, positioning is perfect, quality is great, looks are great.

Seems I ordered the wrong ones and instead of sending them back, I cut and modified them to fit the way I liked.

These are Harley Davidson "Elkhorn" bars. But they are an old cat. no. and need to be drilled for the throttle by wire, so it's a bit of a job. Had them on my "03 RG and they were so comfortable that I wanted them on my new '09, so I went through the trouble of modifying them

Here's how your hand sits on the bar. If you put your arm to your side and raise it straight up, it automatically fits the hand grip without rotating your wrist. No numbness, pain, or sore shoulders anymore.

I like the hand position on that bar Indenial.Also like the look of them. Waiting for my C&C Alligator Fastback seat to come in (its en route) then may  play with the bars. Thanks for posting guys. :2vrolijk_21:

Hey Crusty, how do you like those WO 10" 515's? No cable changes, right? Without riding or sitting on someones bike those seem about just right.
