How hard is it to stretch a street glide tank? Custom dash and wrapper fender also!

[@ThomasFlight82]

Made it.. I can live vicariously thru you LOL..

[@rickykeaton9236]

You and advanblack turned your typical Harley black bike into a beautiful red motorcycle

[@ProfessionalMonkey]

Thank you!

[@steveculver6670]

Bike looks great.bet you love that bike jack

[@blackedoutbandit]

DAMN ADVANBLACK MAKES A KILLER PRODUCTS. I REALLY LIKE THOSE TANK COVERS.

[@freedom6919741]

Can’t wait to see it in person. Maybe we will run into each other some day in South Florida.

[@jamesdunn3508]

That's really cool. I was worried it would scratch tank all up.

[@richardrussell500]

I really like the look of that front fender... :-)

[@quickshoe6]

There is only one. Very nice. Thank you for sharing

[@alexrubio1548]

Lol, that was me the guy you were talking about with the bolts, hehe… Its difficult to explain over text or by writing, I even had a friend of mine come over and and he was like what are you talking about, lol… In short the Road Glide Special, at least the 2019 like mine, does not come with the wind deflectors and the frame does not have a threaded hole there, thus they send you the crush nuts. The way they work is rhe same as the sheetrock anchors, you have to first put in the screw and tighten it so that the back expands and tightens, once it dies you remove it and install the part. Steve from Sik Baggers has a video on it and explains this process and that you must tighten/torque to 60 pounds for this nut to crush and there is where the dilema starts… The crush part never happens and if you insist on it it crushes enough that is won’t be tight nor will it come out… I’ve spoken to others that have installed these and the sounds of horror coming from their mouths is insane, LOL… Anyway, one day when we meet I’ll shows ya…

[@ProfessionalMonkey]

DAMN!!! That sounds miserable. I am glad mine already had the nuts so it was just a switcheroo.

[@alexrubio1548]

@@ProfessionalMonkey Oh man you have NO idea, my friend convinced me to push further until what I said would happen happened, bold was loose but not enough to remove it, it was stuck, UGH!, so later I had to grab the Dremel and cut it off (little by little as not to touch the frame, then we went to home depot, like Steve said ( I should have followed his recommendation right away, but I put it off and forgot what I needed to buy, lol) and bought stainless steel bolts and washers and did it the right way. But it didn't end there, trying to get to the back of frame to hold the nut was another HUGE mission, I had to unbolt the fuse box and still didn't have full access (I could put one finger through but could not turn it to screw it, dropped the nut 300 times and had to go fishing for it with a magnet, man it was a nightmare had to use the magnet to screw it in, lol! That was the left side of the bike, we thought ok, right side will be easier, and it was just a tad, but the bold on that side was like a sliver away from the cylinder, so had to use a small wrench and only like 1/4 turns, I hope I NEVER have to go through that again. I had TONS less of a hard time installing the entire Dakota Digital displays than installing those damn wind deflectors... BUT they look AMAZING after all...! Next time you are out with friends, try this, just point to the wind deflectors and see what reaction you get, if they installed them themselves you are you to get at LEAST and "OOOOHHH MAAAAAN!!!", LOL... That was my case on my last ride, from like 3 people, ROFL...

We shall see

[@rickykeaton9236]

If you run across a loose crush but you can use gorilla super glue to make it tight enough but don’t over tighten the screw when you put the covers back on. I ran across this problem on a used bike I bought it works great!

the 19" version wouldn't look bad because of the taller tire...

Great job Mr. Monkey, No Sir you are not stealing work from body shops. They like me appreciate not having to do these tedious jobs. I commend you on being patient with your body shop. Personally I slow down on jobs I get daily calls or visits on. Thanks to Advonblack, in a weekend anyone can change their bikes color with quality parts. Your bikes are red and the Lady- Mrs. Monkey has grey, very cool. You all are in my prayers Hoka Hey

[@ProfessionalMonkey]

Thanks bud. I like this shop, so far I totally understand the time it takes as we are dealing with getting a difficult color.
