    Well just had my first decent run on the new streety Yesterday. Cant stop smiling. Only have about 650km up so far but fuck they have done well with these. Very happy chappy. Thanks for Tim for giving me a shove to buy new. I think he has already touted them enough on here as others have.

    Have fitted Sundowner seat, fork wind deflectors,rack and back rest and just slip on Screamin Eagle mufflers. Just ordered a couple of different height sheilds and  SWMBO has just put the clampers on for now. 

    That shit eating grin is staying for a while I think.

    Looking good Graz,,
    I see you have the 4 point docking kit,, (rack and sissy bar) installed on the new bike .. Did the 4 point docking kit from the 09 Road King fit the 2016, or did you have to buy new docking kit ??
    It is only for my info, as I thought the newer bikes had different docking connection.. Then again, I have read on the US forums, that you can drill the older style to suite the newer bikes ... Cheers...

    New docking kit and rack. Had a spare back rest. The docking kit is different and not sure if it can be fitted. Never checked it out.

    Well there ya go. After the MD saying enough spent. Took her for her first ride this morning. Hmmmmm think you need to fit passenger footboards. Hmmmmmm getting pretty hot like the old Rk. Maybe you need to do the exhaust on this one as well.. Back to the parts catalouge/ internet. Yippee.

    Nice bike mate, I love mine on long runs, I have the wind deflectors on the frame to try to stop the exhaust heat.
