- December 26, 2012, 23:22:09 PMok so I am really liking the original look of the Drifter 800, I do not want to stray too far from that old school look. I have ordered a few parts which in my mind were like options you can order later from the dealer for the bike, I could not find a blacked out light bar with the blacked out spotlights, I did find an original one in chrome so bought it and had it powdercoated. as per photo's of the original ones also bought the visiors for all the lights. The front fender guard and sissy bar came from the Netherlands as options for the 800. I then added some body moulding to parts just because I think it gives that finished look and makes it more mine, and swapped out some of the button nose bolts. I think I have left the bike still in the orriginal look other then when I add the Indian head fender light. As I get the changes done I'll post pictures and see what people think. Thanks.
