          Thanks Scott. Amatourish paint job. I wanted to try airbrush _ a long time ago. It's hard to mess up lightning.

              That’s cool. I guess those bars are taller than mine. I’m not really sure what the ones I have on my bike are from. I found them in the storage room. They looked like standard bars but may be from a Honda.i need some of those crash bars and highway pegs. Then I wouldn’t need to stand up when I get a cramp!

                Lightening

                Skids,
                I think the lightening is pretty cool looking.
                Nice looking bike...

                  Actually those bars are goldwing bars I think The 81 H bars are on a different bike.
