Cut off the fender struts and I'm mounting new fender to swingarm. Cut the coilover lugs off the swingarm and moved them down and forward to take some of the angle out of the coilovers (similiar to the older FL's) and to lower the rear a bit. Making new exhaust out of 304 SS starting with 1.75 and stepping to 1.875 and finnally to 2" with the tail section being removable with beehive spring retainers. Still have a bunch to do and the weather starting to get nice around here.

Thanks for the compliments, I made them out 3/8 stainless solid round with 7/16 stainless round for the end bungs. I bent them over an old 15" Chevy wheel that I welded a stop to cause I liked the radius. I plan on polishing them and using a brass wingnut on a stud but if you want to counter sink an allen headed bolt I would use 9/16 round for the end bungs. The stainless came from speedymetals.com which is a good source for small quanities. Good luck with yours

Nice Modder. Is that a brand new Street Bob? I thought a mild make over on one of these had a lot of potential, I'll be stoked to see what your turns out like.

it's a standard shifter for a Dyna w/ offset lever...but it didn't fit so we welded a bracket to it and it just bolts on to the shift lever coming out of the trans
