Finally got my bike back from paint!

Very well done.... Congrats

Like the new nacelle. Are the hole patterns for the tin on the FLRT the same as a Road King at the attach points? Or do you have a set of raked trees for a Road King employed?

The tree is an Arlen Hess 7 and 7. I think it was meant for a Road King or Street Glide if I remember right. The nacelle needed a wedge (from the rake) to keep the headlight from coon hunting adjusted to functional was $400. :xzqxz: I really like it though. The front tire is a 23".
 
Really nice job, makes it look lower somehow and definitely meaner.

I experimented with several different wheel/tire combo's before I got it right. The ones on there are very close to the originlp tire height but the fenders are much tighter. Those are 275/40/18 BFG speed rated tires. It does make it look lower, but nearly everything is close to stock except the length overall.
 
Thanks folks! It was excrutiating, fun and completely worth all the time, money and effort. I have experience building cars and trucks... but this was way different. So much stuff had to be hand-fab'd. I imagine there will be way more aftermarket stuff out soon.
