Nice. Now go out and ride!

By the way, I gather you are not married. I do not believe my wife would be ok with me working on my bike inside the house. ;D ;D ;D

The handlebar looks like the ones came stock on my '86. Swapped em for drag bars. What's old is new again ! 8-) I like flat black paint. How about plugging those empty tail light holes to finish it off ?

You've got a point there, Gizzo.

I like what you've done with your bike. Any plans on changing the seat to one with a smaller platform?

I would love to! do you know of any good seat mods? I saw that Corbin makes a bolt on one, but it still looks big an bulky to me... would love to mount a king queen seat, I saw someone on another thread did that. Just don't know if I posses the skill to fabricate my own seat.

Just keep scouring the web for seats. You'll eventually see something you like. You can either fond one like I or copy it.

I found a Harley Fat Boy seat was easy to modify . :)

I've got the matching back-rest now ! ;) makes the "Total package fit together good "
It used to have a Really long nose on it !

MMranch, you got the original tank on your bike still?

Title: Re: Just fininshed my bike! thoughts?
Post by MMRanch on 03/01/16 at 18:32:50

yea original tank , I'd like a bigger one --- ? :-?

The bags are "River Road" by way of "Ebay" ::)

Anybody help with 4 gal.(+) tank ---- The speedometer issue would be another thing if I put a regular tank on .

Bad ass.

How does that sissy bar attach -- did you weld it onto the stock back rest?
Can you share any more pics of that part?
