Its had a lot of mods done, even oil tank. Pretty cool, I like it, has a West Coast Chopper look to it.

I thought the oil tank was off. Makes it hard to find a battery lemme tell you.

I'm thinking it needs some of these. Have to start saving pennies

What does it have for tail lights? I don't see any.

Big ugly one for now

Oh, yeah, I see it now.
Wow, for a softtail, it looks like there isn't much room between the fender and tire. And the fender strut is awful close to the swing arm. I like the open primary. Great looking bike. I do like the blue on black.

It's close but actually doesn't ride bad.

That's great. Hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of us enjoy ours. Ride safe.

Yessir. I've done my fair share of dumb sh*t when I was younger. Little different outlook on it now with two kids and a wife.

Cool...enjoy

Plan to get some risers and pull back drag bars when I have the time an extra money. Thinking black bars though.

Oh almost forgot

What kind of battery does it have? Doesn't look like you have much room in there? What do the switches do on the oil tank?

I am trying to figure out why someone would swap out the struts? Was it in an accident or something? Seems kinda like an odd thing to spend money on.

Its a sweet bike!

Battery isn't the biggest, etx12 absorbed glass mat. Only 180 cranking amps but it starts great. And it's packed in there. I'm guessing it was in a wreck also. Figure that's were belt drive came in too. Scratched primary so a drive replaced it. Just guessing tho

Belt Drive is COOL and expensive! Those are very rare.

I can't believe a 180 CCA cranks it ? WOW

I'd say you are prob right it was wrecked the struts were scratched and broke off where the light was so he cut them down.

I think so too, but I think it's most of why I was so drawn to it. I love the rear fender setup. Just enough to not throw shit on your back. I love it even more with better more fitting bars, hoping to have paint work finished up this weekend.
