    Love it, dude! It's cool to see a bike and initially be caught off guard and think, "wait, wtf IS that?!" haha. Seriously, it's incredibly unique and everything you've done is purposeful, classy, and good looking!

    That fairing works well with the Road King. I can relate and agree about going with more torque. Chrome looks great on this. I personally like the exhaust setup on this compared to the shorter pipes. Ever thought about just running speakers in the saddlebags only? Would it be enough or deliver adequate sound without adding the weight of speakers/stereo to the fairing? Lastly, has your dad ridden this yet?

    • @MattLaidlaw
      @MattLaidlaw  2 года назад +2

      The saddle bag speakers alone aren't great. They are more of a supplemental sound system. No, his dad hasn't had a chance to ride it yet. I'm not sure Andrew will let him. His dad won't give it back!!
