    I'm a huge Custom Dynamics fan, those guys are great. I had an issue with my headlight, turned out to be an issue with my bike not their product and they still helped me troubleshoot all the way through....Very impressed with this company!

    I'm not a RG guy. I've got a 19 CVO SG the wife has a 22 SG Special. I will say I think the bullet turn signals are an awsome improvement over the stock ones. Like your content, stay safe.

      How do they perform over the stock light? Distance and side of the road lighting....I can't see crap on the side of the road and distance is lacking big time with the stock light.

    I agree on the chrome inserts, if you were to keep the body black. But with the green that you've chosen for the body swap I would keep it all black with the inserts to give it a nice contrast.

    I'm liking what you've done, I'm waiting for my RGS to arrive from the US, so I'm really digging your current build. I wanted the 19 RG-CVO but that is unlikely as they are near impossible to find, so I bit the bullet on a 20 RGS black in black 114. So all the models your doing are the same, in black, I'm doing. Keep up the great work !!

  • @jasonbreedlove495

    Hi, I recently came across your channel whilst looking at HD Bikes. Im in the UK not far from London. I have owned 3 x Harleys in my motorcycling career. Recently sold my Bonneville T120 so apart from a Vespa 300 i am Bike less.
    Im very interested in purchsing a Street Glide but over here in UK they are nearly £25k UK Pounds. My wife just got back from Miami as her sister lives there, She went down to Aligator HD and sent me some videos of bikes etc there. You people have it so good in the US for HD bikes and parts. The video you did showing the lights conversion was fantastic. I am not sure i would be trying it despite you running a tutorial. Great Video content and very interesting. Mark

    Love Custom Dynamics products too. Big believer in adding more light but not too much if you know what I mean. Ha! Ha! How much brighter is the new headlight versus the stock. Where I live it get pitch black at night and I want as much light as possible with out going to those Baja lights everyone else is doing. Thanks and love seeing the videos.

    Was waiting for you to break out some of your stick on zip tie holders to secure the wires inside the fairing. 😂
    I am a huge fan of CD lighting. I did the black windshield, and vent lights on my Laguna Orange RG. I too am a chrome fan, but thought the black against the orange looked better.
    I like that new headlight.

  • @tommiller8714
    @tommiller8714 ปีที่แล้ว

    Definitely the black version of that new headlight.
    Curious, to see down the road what performance upgrades you go with, and if [at least for the time being] it'll be a "warranty" build? Lots of Stage-2 and Stage-4 builds out there, but not too much about the Stage-3 builds. What would be interesting [& different, as not too much on this kit on TH-cam] would be the HD-SE Stage-3 114-to-122 Kit which comes with the HD-SE Stage-2 Torque Cam. I'd imagine this kit would have pretty darn good low-to-mid range torque, and that HD-SE Torque Cam does have a nice idle "chop".
    Tom M. '21 RGS Stage-2 114 (S&S 465 cam chest kit; S&S 2-1 Sidewinder w/matching Ghost Pipe; S&S 55mm Intake Manifold; Fuel Moto 3956 ventilator-style A/C; Dynojet PV3b Tuner; HD oil cooler fan, & Trask M8 Checkvent).

Totally agree, HD dropped the ball on safety lighting, I've put thousands of dollars between 2 bikes in extra lighting. worth every penny
