Heres my girl, The Black Pearl, 2008 Superglide Custom, 14,000 klms, have'nt done too many mods really, just some red colour coding and stuff. Imported few bits n' bobs from the States. Anyway feels like "my" bike now. Absolutely love it. Pulls a good wheelie too, much to other HOG'ers disbelief! Been on some great road tips with mates, and even made a few great friends from the HD, don't get that on the jappa's. I'd like to go stage II Sucker and ECM and Bassani straight shots, plus I ordered a Burly slammer kit too but my back is already fucked so sold it on eBay. I will be changing the bars as these ones are no good, dunno what to get, maybe just T-bar with small riser, i'm 6'2". Is this useless Banter yet!?? So.... big Service tomorrow at Trivetts - last day of Warranty!! Does'nt bother me, I'd like to keep this bike until retirement. (which is 30+ yrs away!)
Here she is on Great Ocean Road in full Hobo get up.....
My new Dyna Almost 3 weeks old managed toget caught in the rain twice so far , only changed the bars and grips, ended up with sportster bars in black, the stock bars were just horrible and painfull, got som e1.75 Rush slipons on order going on after first service.
'94 convertible....a work in progress (ain't they all)
Mods include: FXR bars with white retro grips, Mikuni total kit, slip-ons, bullet indicators, Le Pera bare bones solo seat, forward controls, white walls. Plans include progressive shocks & fork springs, remounting the headlight WG style so I can move the gauges lower & further forward, 6 gallon tank, cams, coil etc. I'll probably make another sissy bar in the near future and get a compact air horn so arseh*les on the M4 can hear it .
I still have the factory screen & bags. The bags get used regularly as this is my daily driver & shopping trolley but the screen is too high.
