Updates to my 1600

Did a few things to the Nomad and thought I would share. Added a RDL seat It was made for me sits me up and back with my 38"( inseam with boots on) I just touch flat footed sitting on the seat. Change from memphis bat wing to reckless to add a true stereo, It will need to be painted this winter.
Add saddlebag chaps made by Bamarat very nice, Thanks Jason.
Did some pinstripes and added some color to it with plasti dip it came out really better than I expected and once it cured is pretty hard. I have a trunk for it also but need to make a rack, want to keep the hand rails so have to custom make it.

Could you get a better shot of your remote that is next to your handle? I wanted to see how you mounted it.

Windshield? what size? it looks like there is no angle to it at all?

Other than the shield the bike looks good, nice job.

Thanks guys on all the positive comments. Looks and design are so objective, and to get to something that you like and others do also can be a challenge.

Srcamp1 ill get you a better shot of that its a pretty simple mount. I just made a bracket that mounts under the mirror nut and velcro the remote to it. The door opener is mounted the same way on the other mirror.

Never worried about what everyone else thought, as long as you like it. Pinstripes look real good. Nice looking bike.

Probably 20ga. steel just cut to size, bent the angles, drilled hole to mount and paint. pretty easy.
