So while the front end is being modified, back in the paint/body shop they're filling up those holes with lens .. and the new saddlebag lids finally arrived.

Yes, they are part of the Paul Yaffe Road Glide House Party system. The amplifier was back-ordered so I had them send a partial fulfillment. I received the 3 pairs of speakers and the lids. I have to wait for the amplifier and the wiring. At least they can start cutting holes in the fairing for the speakers and get the lids and grills painted.

Here are some of my ideas.

21" front wheel
Lowered rear-end and matching front-end w/progressive mono-tube.
Extended bags and rear fender
Stretch tank and side panels to match
Shorter windshield and painted - no sure on brand yet need to see what fits the look
New handlebars, again based on what fits (both me and the flow of the bike).
Extended forward controls instead of floorboards
Audio system upgrade with speakers in the bags
Performance upgrade to the engine
and of course, a killer paint job


However, my performance shop has talked me out of a few ideas, like raked front end w/23" wheel and legend air ride - still mulling the air ride over in my head.

Jeez.. I think I spilled most of the beans!


21" wheel for sure

everything i own has been stolen and then replaced with exact replicas....

In the end I elected to go with a 23" wheel and the raked triple tree. To go bigger would mean chopping the frame and extended it which is not something I wanted to pursue. The 23" looks awesome on the raw/stripped down bike. I can hardly wait to get the fairing and tank back on to see the true final look/shape.
