Well I got the Shocks ordered today as well as the LED's for front and rear as well as an electronic flasher so I don't have to have the hot load resistors in line with them.  I also ordered a LED replacement tombstone style rear tail light that has integrated mounts for the rear turn/run lights so that should take care of the relocation of them for when I get the larger saddle bags.  

As far as the evil bay HID kits  no thanks,  I want a good quality kit that will last.  I've had to many bad experiences buying stuff like that off of evil bay.  This is the one I'm really thinking about getting. http://www.customdynamics.com/hid_headlight_kits.htm

Will post pics once I get these parts that I just ordered in and installed

Neither could I so I just went with the 11" 412-4233C shocks. They are identical in spring rate to the ones they sell for the sportster in the one up spring rate but in the metric sizing instead of SAE sizing.

I've been thinking while I was riding today how nice it would be to have a fuel tank with a little larger capacity. Does anyone know of one that will fit with little modifications and no mods to the seat at all because I have the Corbin seat??

On a side note,  I am finally legal for riding.  Finished 1st in my MSF course this weekend and went to the DMV and got my M endorsement added to my license today.  The MSF course was pretty interesting but heck on the hips for those of us that have arthritis, with all the power walking they have you do on the first day.

Will definitely let ya know.  Those are aftermarket mirrors, I needed some with the arm just a little longer and the mirror sitting a little higher with my wide shoulders. Can't remember the brand off hand but I bought them at the local bike shop for $15 each.

You could always buy a spare stock tank and have a shop enlarge it. Custom shops do that all the time with Sportster tanks, you can go bigger or smaller without messing with the stock tank mounts. It gets pricey but you would know that it will fit.

Well Heck,  I guess I good things must come to and end some time.  Just looked at my financial status and saw how low I was getting on the little money I got from inheritance. So the bags, windshield and possible Bars and Tank are gonna have to wait for a little while     I did manage to get everything else on my list though.  All things are ordered and en-route as I type.  First of the orders should start arriving tomorrow and finish up by the beginning of next week at the latest.

BobWd  if I manage to sell the stock seat, Jardine Slip-on and the stock turn lamps front rear I might be able to pull off getting the new windshield that I've been looking at.  Was really wanting one of those Bat wing style that cover out towards the hands better but those are around the $300 mark so I've got to sell off a few things first.  I PM'd a guy that asked me about the Jardine in another thread and he hasn't responded so once I get the new stuff in, it will all be going up in the marketplace sans the windshield and bags till the other stuff sells.

I've got a bar mount Memphis Shades that has a base flare. Not as wide as I'm guessing you ultimately want but... I should also have a spare set of fork tube clamps. Not that hard to make a set of bracing rods.

It does have some heavy scratches on the left side, was on the VN800B I crashed in 2008. You could always buy a sheet of acrylic/Lexan and use this as a pattern... The material is cheap cheap cheap... And can be shaped with a heat gun and a leather covered thigh.

Just collecting dust in the shed and taking up space I could put to better use. PM me your zip code, I'll get a shipping quote of you're interested.
