Thanks Everyone. Do you have any ideas on how to make it better.

I don't like the whole back view of the bike, Especially the sideways license plate. From the side, those hard bags just don't look right for some reason. When I see a Japanese bike with the badging removed, It makes me think that the rider really wanted a Harley. You asked and this is my honest opinion.

10" black powdercoated mini-apes. They look awesome and do wonders for your lower back!
Oh, and black pipes.

Are those the Mutazu hard bags. I would have had those if they didn't put it up on their site right after I ordered the HL.

I just took off my 16 apes to see if it looked better with the bags.... The bags are off a Harley Shuvel Head. I got them from my neighbor for free

. i Just had to get them repainted and new hinges.

i think you need to polish the fins on the motor instead of leaving them black. it's just two much black... but that's what a lot of people are goin' for today. just not my style. i also like the badges on the tank. bags don't really flow with the bike very well, they are alright.. but too square for the flowin' feel of the aero. but all in all... looks better than what ya started with. just not necessarily my taste.
