These next 2 pictures are for Dunnspeed. The first one is the bar ends on my america, the second is a set of risers for my bobber. I couldnt find spike risers for a springer so i bought from 2 places and modified both to make them work together. For those of you who are going to ask, yes i a min the process of bleeding the brakes(bungee cord around the grip)

Frame was done by a guy in Philly. I met him through an ebay auction. He did a great job on it. VERY reasonable price compared to everyone else out there. Also i hear you with the $$$ part. I had alot of parts from last year and bought a bunch with the income tax this year.

Ya, those risers are killer, Jack. That will look awesome when you get those on there. With the bar ends, they look good too. I know your bike and love the spikes bro. I have Kuryakyn grips and spike bar ends too. I like the look a lot.

Yeah, really don't need to see a lot behind me unless it's flashing lights  I do my lifesaver check every time when I change lanes.

thanks for the compliments. I too love the spike look as you can tell. TThis new bike will have more spikes than the other one. I thought of going with the Kuryakyn grips like you have on the new bike. Well have to see what turn up.
