I LIKE THE TRUCKER GIRL IDEA!!!! we ordered some PIAA high intensity fog lights last night, reflectors will come off and bondo then re shoot it... no idea on paint, he was talking about having me shoot it in a heavy flake granny apple green yesterday while we where riding but who knows. i am going to pull off the lowers, wheels, crash bars, handle bars and basicly anything shiny and will blast that all down and powder it all... he is going to come by and pick out what black he wants us to use (We have like 1000 diff blacks in the shop)
then... STEREO!!! LOTS of boooooom! our goal is to make cars rearview mirrors shake! the gas tank is a false tank, so we are thinking of glassing that all in and building a box out of it for a 10 in sub, , may even make it down firing to make use of the small space, but i dont want any of it to be seen, so we will play wiht some ideas... trying to use some of the strereo gear we have laying around here... and there is a TON of it!

sorry bud forgot my phone last night... ill get one of it soon for ya
SHE IS ON THE ROAD! put 40 miles on it last night, was awesome how many people went nuts over the bike. the back up camera is on point! the thing looks insane on the road with all the LED's, the HID and the LED fog lights put out an insane amount of light, stereo just screams, bike sounds great!
got 2 gremlins to work out, one is in the throttle : does not snap back, has a very bad spike when you get on the throttle
the other is the exhaust: when we fire it up it blows some smoke out the one pipe... but after we dial that in she is good to go!
