TrueBlue: I run Southern MC rims and rotors. The front is a 21".

CVOVIC: The front is dropped. I put the progressive drop ins with no spacers so it is over 2". About 2.5" maybe. The rear are the crappy@$$ stock airs. Switch to some perfomance shocks soon maybe on the first rubber change (well, first after the change of rimms and rubber). Ran arnotts on my past couple bikes and they sat at knee level. Thought i would go something different on this bike. The bars are the Chubby outlawz 12".

LOROAD: Here is my wifes bike and one of her sitting waiting and i snapped a pic. All these are from my camera phone so forgive the quality:












We've done a crap load to her sporty and tried to keep it a sporty. We bought it new in 08. 1200 Nightster. Before they came out with the all black bikes. She has good taste, she asked for each and everything we've done for it.

By the way... thanks for compliments on mine. It isn't done up or anything but kinda the way i like it :). It's a daily rider and takes longer trips so not going real aggresive.

What did you have to do to make the wheel fit? Like yours, mine is ridden often and on long trips so I don't want to be too agressive in changes either.

My 1st HD was an '81 Sporty so I still like 'em just don't want to ride far on one, couldn't anyway, only held 2 & 1/4 gals. Brings back memories, rode it to class in college, fun bike but didn't look anything like your pics (which are very good by the way) I don't miss the 4 speed or the vibration...​

Both bikes look great! My wife has a 1200C and is slowly making it her own. They are awesome little machines that are fun to ride. Fortunately she hasn't done anything girly yet to mess with it’s cool look. Sorry Mrs. Chainsaw, some things just don’t look right!!!;) Although she has started threatening to break out the Bedazzler when I’ve taken it out for one too many spins!!!

The color is Scarlet Red. Was only available on the Road Glide in 2010. Still get it on the SG though.

As far as the sporty... i have been known to get it out and pull the front-end up on it :). First time i did it she got seriously pissed! I can't stand the mid pegs myself though. Feels like i am on a kids bicycle. If i have to back it up while i am sitting on the seat... no doubt i am going to crush my freaking shins! We're thinking of getting her a switchback and having a little fun with that. If we do that then i get the sporty! Start stripping her down and chopping her up! I recently sold my other two bikes i had in the garage so i need a fun project type bike. Here are a couple that i sold....



I need to get to work rebuilding my stock!

Still one of my favorite Sharks!! I really like your bike Brett and always have since I saw it on HDForums. What lowers are those? I am thinking about a pair on mine now since I like them so well on yours :)
