hey smokesreens, what type of passing lights are you running? mort

Its a kuryakyn constalation light bar. I love it but wish that kury did a better job on the mount for it, the plate is a little thin imo and shakes more than I would like. Not bad im just being picky

Also you can move them back and forth a few inches 2-3

Ok, I mis-spoke. Not a Harley fender, just bags and tail lights. Still looks awesome! I want this look as opposed to my QD leather bags.

txwelder, there are many different ways to mount your bags once you get them, check out my photobucket link on the bottom of this page. i'm sure some others here will chime in to tell you how they mounted also, good luck and ride safe, mort

Just to even it out a little bit...I rode with a guy last week that has R* soft bags on his custom sporty. Looked pretty good. They looked better on a smaller bike like that.

Personally, I'd like to strip a Royal Star of fairing, bags and tour pack and fit them to my Road Star. I don't know how much fabrication it would take, but it would look just awesome!! I love the looks of the Royals, but you just can't beat that big V-twin!!

I'm with you.

I have a Royal Star Venture parked in my garage next to my Road Star. I have spent many days looking at the similarities and think it would be a rather easy conversion.
