Finally bit the bullet and bought one of Warlocks Low Profile seats. (I failed miserably when I tried to half-inch it at Dent)

Thought it was about time I posted a few photies.

As she was shortly after I bought her, only moved the indicators by then.




Now with the new seat and a few more changes over the years.
Apologies for the poor photos and the lube oil all over the chain.













Thanks Warlock good to do business with you, hope some of you like.

Cheers

Chris

Like the look of the mini-indicators (especially the mounting at the front) - where are they from?

Good looking ride there Chris - I liked the look of it when I saw it on Bodgers.

Be good to catch up some time - must let you know about the tour I'm planning next year.

Great pics mate!

One of the first things I changes, I'm sorry but I hate those Harley type lights they come with.
The indicators are from Highway Hawk, I think they call them Alu Black
They're bar end indicators and they mount in a length of 1 inch tube with a bracket welded on which bolts to the horn fixing bolt. Been on for a few years now. and hasn't budged. Looks pretty clean as well.
Cheers
Chris

Have a look at the Vendors Only section under Maverick Customs. Mikes a top bloke and has sent a few over the pond.

Cheers

That looks great. Caspian Blue is also one of my favorite colors. I have the same pipes too. It looks great.

Whoa...that's really nice. If I had a Speedie I'd want it to look like that! I'd love to see it up close.

No aftermarket turnouts for a Harley.
Loads of them on ebay and they fit pretty good and sound awesome.
Maverick does do some may do you a deal if you buy both together.

Cheers
