You mean you're actually going to unhook the rear brake line and not install the chrome rear master cylinder at the same time  :o ?

You mean it doesn't come with that either? [smiley=nixweiss.gif] Oh well, it's got enough chrome anyway. :o I believe my list is complete! ;) Hoist!  8-)

Uhhh, I believe that comment would be considered sacrilegious by some on this site. 'D00d, where are you - I think you may need to set up an intervention.

Not just d00d Howie, he's just the front man and if you're "already" planning GTG's in NYC and going to the "Hot Springs", I'd seriously consider the chrome ::)

It is easy to see that your ride has already shown that HD makes a nice "starter kit" when they deliver a CVO.

I'd like a nickel for every hour spent in R & D at the MoCo to figure out how many accessories they can leave off the bikes, in order to promote the OCD purchases.

The car companies are unbelievably jealous of this marketing success, they try to copy it but to no avail. they just can't understand the OCD.

Shame, shame, shame. :o [smiley=no.gif] There you go again making statements you will regret. [smiley=zHole.gif] Don't you worry though many before you have said those words so you will not be the first to be mistaken. I can tell it's just going to be harder to [smiley=whip.gif] into shape, but you will conform it may take a little more work/time but you will. ;D

I thought everyone who owns a HD individualizes their bikes. If everyone is putting all this extra chrome on these CVO's, I guess my bike will really stand out. It'll be the only one without extra chrome! :o ::) ;) Hoist!  8-)

Until the OCD night gremlins work their way into your mind and you realize that black POS starter has to go, and then it's the SS rear brake line for the black POS, and then floating calipers, and then rear air suspension (chromed) and then and then and then ::)

There coming to get you ah ha ah ha.................I know I know, when monkeys fly

Roger,
They are already there he just hasn't realized it yet. Wasn't he talking about upgrading the rear rotor to match the front ones, putting chrome spacers on the rear wheel? [smiley=oops.gif]

Howie just admit it you are just as bad as the rest and you are in good company. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

Settle down boys. My OCD is primarily performance, safety, and touring based mods. That's why rear the brake mods. And when doing work, if the occasional chrome piece sneaks it's way in... ::) Of course I want my bike to look its best as well. I like black starters, you don't. Believe me, to me, my bike will look awesome! You know I bleed black and orange. Yeah I have my fair share of HD bling and collectibles. But my bike will remain different than the rest. My way! ;) Hoist!  8-)
