      Marty...I said I liked it but that I wouldnt have done it myself...how does that translate to hating everyone?...I'm not in a good mood today not appreciative of the "humor"

            I think that's really under the finish.
            The more I look at this bike the more I like it !
            WELL DONE SIR !

                Sorry for the delayed response.

                Here is a pic of what I had in the tail section filling that gap,...until a bump took it out. Hence the current side mount set up.

                    I like it. The only thing I would do is a front fender. If you ever get caught in the rain!!!!! Where did you get the mufflers? How are the front lights at night?

                    Great job.

                      Sneaky cool on the striping.....
                      At least your not having to reinvent the wheel on a cool tag/ lights bracket seems you will have several to choose from....

                        This one from the Hotwing Glass site should prevent what happened to yours. Stiffer springs will help, too!

                          Sorry, just seeing your questions...
                          Got the mufflers on ebay. I REALLY like them. Loud but a few decibels less than open pipes and no midrange loss. Really rounds out the sound.

                          This seller has chrome as well.

                          Headlight needs some more adjusting. So far it's not great but brighter than stock. So I cannot completely vouch for this particular product.
