Back story: I am Deployed in Afghanistan. I bought a 2013 Road Glide Custom in Vivid Black. I will be home mid August and thats when the bike is scheduled for delivery. I found this site a few weeks ago. Big mistake! But thanks for the site Bill! Now I spend my free time looking at bad ass baggers. I kinda knew the direction I wanted to go but now have way to many ideas. Thanks guys. But the plan is this. Black and Chrome. Black front end. Raked w/trees. 23 w/new fender. stretched bags. new rear fender. razor tour pac. exhaust. bars and other small stuff. I have made a decision on only 2 parts so far. the blacked out front end has been bought and delivered. Just a stock Harley front end Powder coated black. Pickard USA 23 trees. The rest I need help and ideas on. My plan is to have most of the stuff ordered and delivered when I get home. I cant do it all at once. Well I could but the wife would kill me. So my plan is buy this stuff first because it will have a greater impression: Wheels, front fender, bars, exhaust. I wanted a side exhaust but now think duals are needed on the rear to break up the fender and bags and give it some contract. Since the bike will be black and have a black front end Im thinking about chrome wheels. Also thinking about getting a yaffe solid rear to save some $$. Its only $800 and I wont change the rotors or pulley since they will be hidden by the stretched bags eventually. But the front will be one from Pickard. I am picking Pickard parts because they are 1hr away from me and it will save a lot on shipping and can see the parts in person. All other parts I am going to use vendors on here when possible. So back to what I need help on. Bags: I like TrueKustoms and the price is great with them painted. I also like there rear fender with custom lights. I have no idea on exhaust now. Slip ons for now and new header pipes later. Bonce some ideas and product that yall have found off of me. I worked at a metal fabrication/ laser shop in high school and still have connections. So Im going to try and design some one off parts. My first will be a tour pac mount that hugs the fender. $300 for a rack is crazy. As soon as I decide and buy I will update. Hopefully I will have most of it ordered so I can do what I have in 1 weekend and wait till the wife says ok to more parts. lol So help me out if you can and pics help.
