    Picked up my new Lo today, froze my arse of riding it in a mates borrowed jacket (my old one shrunk in the magic shrinking wardrobe in the 4 years since I last wore it ). Been smiling all day! Chucked in some photos but the powdercoating begins next week so it wont stay this way for long! And as I don't feel like spending $750 bucks on a Harley jacket  any recommendations on a winter jacket would be appreciated. Cheers.

     Thanks boys, Darkash I think we might ride a little differently! (at least for the first few weeks anyway). Dropped the bike off for powder coating and a few mods today and should have her back in a week. I will post some photos when I can. Shit weather here in Vic at the moment so not a bad time to get things done.

    Quick update, I just got my Lo back after a few minor changes (powder coat, paint, smoked indicator lenses etc), still waiting on the SE exhaust, a visor for the headlight and an LED tail light.

    Here's a pic (hopefully) and I will post again when I get the rest done in the next week or so.

    p.s back reflectors should fall of shortly hahah

    Cheers

     Latest addition is a a quick release sissy bar for the missus? I might even leave it on. Any thoughts?

    Also can anyone recommend a good backpack sized bag for the rack?

    Cheers.

    Crasher and DarKash,

     You probably confirmed what I knew which is why I went the quick release option. I reckon it looks ok though when the wifes on board or I need to take some luggage.

    DarKash, I really like the forwards (always have). Ergonomically (I'm 6ft and 98kegs) the forwards (stock HD) and the stock bars works really well for me, from what I understand of your cornering you will enjoy the forwards also.

    Next mods will be some joker machine pegs and probably some nostalgic grips

    Cheers

    DarKasH,

    Comfortable bend in the knees, I would imagine more than with the boards (I never ran em so can't be sure). Can you try someone elses? I doubt you will be disappointed.

    G'day Big Dave & Rocky,
    Trying to source some new pegs & shifter either Joker Machine or WCC FTW, I hope to get them on in the next few weeks, if I can't find em I will probably change the air filter (black of course). Will post a pic when I get em on.
    Dave, I'm fuckin lovin it!
