            Wow

            I love it. Really nice looking.

            Just curious, what did you use to fill in the area where the badges were? And the tuning fork decal, is that just a sticker?

                Looks beautiful. I like the painted fuel door - nice touch.
                I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.

                            That looks cool, man!
                            Are you thinking about changing the signals to smaller units?
                            Healthy is merely the slowest rate at which you can die

                            Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better. I’ve always believed this, in spite of the trouble it’s caused me. Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube.
