new pic of my bike after i installed the rear chrome swingarm, upper and lower chrome belt guards, chrome sprocket cover, linby crash bar, mid-controls(liked the forwards but i'm kinda too short to reach them that's why i changed back to mids, like the feel of the mids better though), front and rear chrome caliper covers (can't see since i don't have a pic of the other side of the bike yet), progressive 11" 412 heavy duty shocks, and chrome lower fork slider kit. and the sissy bar is detachable so i took that off as well to give the bike a more sleek look. stupid thing i did was i wanted to put the progressive suspension in the front as well but i was so caught up in the rest of the stuff being done that i forgot to tell the dealer to install them so now i will either have to pay them again to do it or just try to do it myself. i know it's not that hard and most stuff done i could have done myself but i don't trust myself yet with stuff like front suspensions and making sure i put the rear tire back on the right way and stuff like that so for now i will pay the price. they hooked me up pretty good though. i had the upper and lower belt guards, sproket cover, caliper covers and the shocks when i brought the bike to them and they installed all that stuff for free also since i had forwards on there and i wanted the linby crash bar put on, the front header pipe got in the way so they happened to have a vance and hynes header pipe meant for a bike with a crash bar on it lying around so they installed that for free also. so i think i did pretty good.
