Don makes some nice bars. I had a 12" set on my Nomad. They felt good.

Did you have your extended hoses made locally or buy them online somewhere?

I had some made at Axelboy in St Peters, MO. They were able to recreate the "Y" that was there originally. I never asked RoaringToyz if they would sell the hose kit separately, but they were my Plan B.

I'm assuming you're referring to the Y under the lower tree clamp? If they were custom making the hoses, couldn't they just reuse that one?

We used some low profile hoses. So I'm not sure if it was an option or not. I considered doing what RoaringToyz did for simplicity but Axelboy seemed confidant.

--yes, HD black LED headlight :)

What did RT do? Didn't they just extend with green braided?

Approximately how much did it cost for the extended hoses? What makes them low profile?

Looking good!

I put round 2 1/2 inch LEDs in my bags. and the blinkers went in the vent along with running lights.
Question: How much was the Handle Bars and how did you paint the plastic on the engine heads?

Thanks

Roger
