Hoblick Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 ok so i have wanted to build a bagger here for a while, and late summer i got a Roadstar 1600 to do it with.just a little update on some progress..bike is an 01 1600 Roadstar, its got a nice set of 18" PM Wheels on it, and a air ride setup. anywho...got in some parts finallyCobra Crash barsFreedom Performance True dualsSaddlemen Profiler seatand harley street glide front fenderi already had gotten my Reckless fairing in and mocked up the stereo in it (clarion head unit, and polk DB marine grade speakers). i decided that the radio by itself didnt have enough power to be heard at highway speeds, so i ended up putting a 200 watt amp in there as well. i still have to make a bracket to hold it in there a little better, and drill a hold for the wires to run into the fairing.everything is just kinda loosely mocked up.. front fender i have to take off the stock harley mounting points yet, and make my own. pipes are kinda loosely fitted (i mixed the mufflers up lol, one on left goes on right and so on)im thinking about trying to adapt a Street Glide rear fender to the bike.. i have access to one, im gonna see how well it sit on there and go from there.my Tsukaya Hard bags will be in friday, so i can mock those up this weekend.as well as my cobra sissy barif the street glide rear fender looks like it will work well, ill have alot more work ahead of me. if not, then after mock up ill tear the bike down and get stuff ready to go to paint. (Attack Painter is doing the paint work)the paint is gonna be pretty nice, i would describe it, but ill just wait until i get it done.. it will be better to just show pics!some other small things i gotta do is make a rear plate bracket, and im gonna do some kind of tucked brake/tail/turn lights that will pretty cool. also im gonna internal wire the bars, and add a front signal bar.i got alot of work either way i guess lol. the day i got itand the progress so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
