Yes, I did.
I'm wondering if a windshield will bolt up to the front, it should, right?

dayum, that's a beauty!
Now go ride that sucker and a lot of questions will answer themselves.
Then come back and ask some more!

Just need to find a quieter set of slip-ons and some new handlebars; those Beach Bars don't feel that great.
And, maybe a windshield.

Beautiful bike. My wife has the same Lindy engine guards on her Fat Boy. A detachable windshield would look nice and function well for you. Seek out Memphis Shades, and get a two tone shield to match the nice color scheme. Memphis Shades windshields are great - again, something my wife has on her Fat Boy.
The beach bars are the the only feature that looks out of place on that bike. I'll let some of the more experienced guys make a suggestion on a better set of bars for that style.

My beach bars are a little smaller than those, i like mine. I would maybe rotate your hand controls up a little so the master cylinder is more level and you arent reaching at an odd angle.

Yeah, I think you're right.
However, I think I am going to go with a different bar, maybe some baby apes.

Slow down a little, your about to drop in to Harley ownership, not just buying a bike, but making it into yours. If you must change handlebars (how many miles have you ridden this bike) I suggest you get a set of take off original style bars for this bike and start from there. What ever you do make sure the present cables wit fit,, or cost of replacing them.
