image.jpeg I started dreaming of a chopper in 2000 before I was old enough to drive when motorcycle mania came on tv. Turned 18 and bought an r6 and then upgraded a little to an r1. Now I finally got me a dream bike(to me). It's an 05. Chopper model thats been hard wired, lowered, and repainted. I plan to repaint it before long myself since I'm more of a metallic/pearl orange type of guy. Open primary and the normal Vance and Hines big radius until I can afford some yaffe pipes. Well here she is.

Nice looking chopper. I have an '05 chopper also. It has the Daytec frame. I see there are a lot of differences between them... voltage regulator location, oil tank, rear fender struts, seat, grips, mirrors, handlebar controls, coil cover, air cleaner cover, black triple trees and lower fork legs, and tail lights??? What do you have for the tail lights? I'm sure some of that was swapped out, painted or powder coated by a previous owner. Enjoy and good luck with the modifications. Ride safe. :chopper:

I'm thinking the struts and rear fender were swapped. The handle control and all were removed with the big dog wiring. Along with the coil etc. I'm betting the chrome was peeling is why some of it has been coated in black. I'll get some pics when I can get off work before its dark
