Would be done by now if Reckless would ship my fairing and if I would quit breaking the parts I'm putting back on. This is going to be one of those colors that never looks the same in pictures as it does in real life. I also had plans next year to do away with the chrome, but after seeing it with this color I might have just changed my mind completely. More chrome! Next up I have to figure out why the bags are leaning "out" so much, and in at the bottoms. Some of the problem is the quick release brackets and how far out they push the tops of the bags, but there has to be a solution. Still have to receive, paint, and mount the fairing. Then figure out how to afford duals this year, because those would look badass.   Logged     Last Edit: 2012/05/07 11:58 By PhatRJ.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #487664 theGRINDER (User) NO REGRETS!

Actually, i am in the works on making some fillers for the top of the rails/bags... HD does a great job at building their bikes...   Logged     Photo Album   The administrator has disabled public write access. #499540 PhatRJ (User) Smack 'em Yack 'em Expert Boarder Posts: 556 Re:New Paint & Bagger Upgrade! 11 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Gentlemen we're getting close! Also couldn't resist painting these Going away for a long weekend (without the bike ) so won't be able to sand and buff until Monday, which is driving me crazy. Can't wait to get it together and be done!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #499548 Arps (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 497 Re:New Paint & Bagger Upgrade! 11 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Looks great!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #499550 COBRA_COMMANDER (User) Cobra Commander Wants You!

You have the right to show off a little bit.   Logged     http://s1271.beta.photobucket.com/user/bluestar825/library/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #506036 PhatRJ (User) Smack 'em Yack 'em Expert Boarder Posts: 556 Re:New Paint & Bagger Upgrade - Complete! 11 Months, 1 Week ago   Also can't forget to thank the love of my life and head painter who absolutely refused to let me touch a paint gun. I got to sand though! I don't know what she sees in a big doofus like me, but I'm glad she sees it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
