I bought my Stryker June 16th. I rode the Next day about 300 miles and came home and ordered the Mustang Seat And rear sissy bar and Pad.

I have been slowly painting some of the chrome, its just rattle can semi gloss black. I filled in the lower Yamaha chromed cover and painted it and removed all the stickers.
I made the License plate bracket and bought a lit Cover from Chrome glow and wired it up.

I went to the dealer and got the exhaust. They had it in stock. I ordered the Cobra tuner and it should be here Tuesday.

I still would like to get some mirrors and I am making a surround for the gas cap, It will also be black.

So what do you think? Any questions or suggestions.

This is a great example of how less is actually more. Its clean! Love the seats which will definitely be in my future. Your pics are great and makes me want to get out and ride. Dont know about you guys but cant seem to get tired of looking at this beautiful bike!

No back rest?? Dont need it?

Thanks for the kind words. I think I like fixing the Bike up as much as riding it.
I just decided that I didnt want it and didnt really think I would need it either. So far I don't miss it.

Very nice does that confty looking seat make you sit any more forward ?
Once you do the mirrows it will look complete then.

I am pretty sure it leaves you in the same position as stock.

Looks nice. Good job.
How about 2-3 pics of the license plate bracket you made.
I made one two nights ago and bombed it. I am looking for other options..

I will try and get some pictures later today.

hey jtodd.. great pics.. wow.. you got some great pics their.. really makes your bike shine.
i'm with 8secz.. can you get some closeups on the license plate? i'm really into this mod and i really like how yours angles. also.. in Tex i think i'm required to show the inspection.. where did you move yours to?

We dont have inspection stickers. You cant get a new plate or renew old plate till you get inspection done here once a year .
