Thanks for the kind words I was a little hesitant to post pics after the bashing I took from the first ones.  Keep your eyes open for the 2010 sesg project

Glad you followed thru and posted the results.  I love seeing other's rides and like someone above posted....it would be a dull place if we all liked and rode the same bike.  I also like the idea of someone on the site getting a nice set of '05 painted tins for thier banana.  har.   :drink: spyder

I think you did the right thing starting with that bike. The only thing I would have done was duplicate the factory paint job. But thats what makes us all differnent.Custom baggers are the latest craze and are way more practical than the chopper craze years agao.

I'm sure you already know and have seen the many SE baggers out there that have been raked and big wheels etc etc. Paul Yaffe, Sinister Industries, BadDad, Camtech, are a few of the shops transforming these beautiful bikes as well as some SE bikes.Its even coming main stream now, how about the 2009 SERG that keeps popping up on Sons of Anarchy?

Best of luck with the bike :drink:

Gotta be honest.  Monumental waste of arguably the best model year CVO...and hottest color.  Just one man's opinion...

Got to be honest.............. Cut the neck on that bike and put a 23" or 26" on and you could arguably have one of the hottest bikes lol. Your half way there with the rear end of that bike as it is. Nice Bike

Personal taste is is what makes us all different. I for one love the SE baggers but then put a little modern twist to it like you did and I think it looks great!

Doesn't look like you liked yours much either, since it's not stock.   :nixweiss:

They seem to be a great value as a bike to build on, according to the numbers he presented.  Not sure why everyone is knocking his choice of customization, since there aren't many of us/you with stock bikes?

To that end, nice ride!!
