Nice front end! The placement of the lights and all. Also like the gangsta fender. Tried putting together a vid once but it ended up looking like a Cold War Soviet version of propaganda. . How's that Forcewinder working out for leg room? I'm used to the stock air. Can't see spreading any more without some kind of physical therapy first. Like the highway bars setup too. Simple. Ride safe.

Hey, if anyone is using a forcewinder and not at least 6 feet tall you will have a leg wrap around issue. My custome foot brackets actually push the feet outwards which makes it easy to work with the forcewinder. I love my gangster fender, and currently having it chopped up to have a skull with lights somehow worked into the them. What I have found out is that the Roadie presents a good platform to go custome crazy with. can't wait to get my wreckless fairing in. I will do an updated video, and all I can say is, once the fairing is complete with my current idea in mind, it will probally be one of the most demonic Roadies in Jersey

The force winder works great on my R/S 1700 "06" midnite

No problems at 6ft.4in. @ 265 pds. I custom fabricated a set of ~ floorboard offset mounting plates, out 3/4 steel plate they have 5/8 "rise offset" and moves the floorboard 2in. forward mounting offset plate is located between the floorboard mounting bracket and frame, so as no floorboard contact with the pavement in a turn. This custom offset brings the floor board front up and drops the rear at a 5-6 degree tilt. When people follow me in a 90 degree turn they swear I gonna knee drag and burn... but the tire sticks and grabs thru the turn... the bike sweeps back up! and were a rocket head'in on down the road!
