Bling Items count

[Mojo]

So today was a very rainy day and not much to do but I was in the garage piddling with my SGS and started counting all the things I've added to it. Without naming them specifically I counted 40 different items I've added on since purchasing the bike. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $7,000 (not counting motor clothes)! Its no wonder that Harley sends them out as plainly dressed as they do ! ! ! just sayin . . . . . . heh heh

I agree Mojo, not sure I've spent that much yet but I'm trying. I look at it this way though, there's much more expensive hobbies that I've had that didn't bring me as much enjoyment.

I hear ya Mojo... I have a box that all my 'take-offs' are in with all receipts.... I went thru them one day and was shocked that I spent over $8500 in accessories.... I NEVER told Dana... but she must know by now.. lol!!!!

I have $7,700 in 34 items. I keep it on a spread sheet on my computer. I keep thinking that I am done and don't need to buy anything else for my SG but that doesn't seem to ever happen.

Maybe a CVO isn't that expensive after all!

Some of us could have bought a CVO for the aftermarket stuff we've added and the price lol.

Yeah- I think about that often but then I'm reminded; you wouldn't have as much fun in the "wish book"!

Resist Spazz! Resist!


So, do bling items that the dealer put on to entice me to buy count or do they have to be put on post-sale? And we're talking around $4k of pre-buy bling here. LOL

List in my signature below.

Dividing mods into categories and proceeding in order of importantance works well. Some categories include Saftey, Comfort, and performance. I mod Saftey and comfort first. I ride the bike for at least 5k before I work on performance. This formula has worked well for me for decades.
I also take the time to pick a theme for my bikes. Visualize the finished product. As example if you knew me and I traded bikes without your knowledge you would still be able to pick out my ride in the parking lot without having previously seen it.
All my bikes end up clean and smooth.

Good luck and have fun!

ok my bike is not as stock now and in no way have I spent as much as you guys have. But so far I have invested about $3000 into my bike most of it bling, but I have added my own bling by polishing 54 parts on my bike.

I've pissed away a lot more money on things that didn't bring near as much enjoyment and content. My FLHXS was fine the way it came and even better now.. It reflects me and who I am.. I suppose like anything else there is a limit.. I'll explore that raid when I get to it
