ahh man this this is so comfortable... got the riding possition right where i want it!... got the oil cooler mounted up, new fittings done to run the oil strait out and not down.... tied that back and moved the cooler back behind... still will get plenty of air flow and is out of way of your foot... the lines are above where hte chain passes and there is a guard under there for them as well... these lines will of course be wrapped in the chrome wrap... also did a mock up of what i am going to do on the exaust.. simple and clean, ill wrap the header pipe in white wrap...

ooohhhh did not even think of that! i may have to wrap them... ooh any ideas? it is about 1 in from the down tubes... think that is enough... the frame is powdered in eastwoods bronze with a dry mix flake and have a ultra clear over it... i am about to start designing my exhaust... you tell me what you think... do you feel that the 1 in is enough away or not? bear in mind the header pipe should not get over 400 with any luck!
