    got some bling today ,started off with some front axel nut covers and ordered some swing arm pivot bolt covers .

     

    Had a quick look at fitting them and reckon the left one is a bit of a sloppy fit ,it comes with a spacer but its too tight .

    Ill see what happens when I put the little grub screws in .Not today though as Im crook :( bloody flu ....good day for a ride too .

    Can any one suggest some good sites for looking at bling and getting Ideas ?

     

    cheers

    chucked em on and they look ok ,The left one is a bit off center .
    It will make more sense when I get more bling :)

    Ill go the skulls on the small bits and am tossing up over flames or eagles on the bigger covers ,there doesnt seem to be a lot of choise .
    I had a look at some rolland sands stuff but wasnt too keen .

    I gotta get a cool looking but comfortable seat too .Im hopeing to find a shop some where here in Melbourne .

    I always do searches on ebay, mainly so I can see a picture of the part as well as a description, then ring around local bike shops to see if anyone stocks that brand.... or google it.

    EG google search - Kuryakyn in stock Melbourne (link below)  

    www.google.com.au/search 

    That tells me "Piston broke" in bayswater (2nd google result) stock some Kuryakyn bits, and should be able to order in others.....?

    For sporster bling and bolt on ideas check out hdforums.com (especialy the topics like the one below is gold for irons - over 100 pages!!) or xlforum has plenty of pics.
