Nice rack.  What did you have to do to modify it?

I like it much better than the Harley rack or even the factory one.

Nice bike, Lucas. Your tank colors - Not '04 colors, right?

thanks for the compliments! I bought this bike used and this was the tank that was on it. my vin number says that the bike is an '04, so the previous owner must have put this tank on it because i don't think that my color was available in '04.

That color came out in '05. Is your motor a 790 or 865? If it's an 865 it's an '05.
BTW... if they offered that color in '04, I would have gotten it. It's a great color!

Welcome to the site, Lucas!  (...the bike is lookin' good!) 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

That hellcat windshield looks solid and not translucent. Is that a problem when riding?

It's not a problem at all. I'm tall enough to look over the windshield while riding.
