Well after doing the top end on my bike I decided (wife let me have the money) it was time for paint and a couple other things while the weather was crappy. Took a month to get paint done but turned out good. Also put on a new front wheel and some saddle bags my buddie gave me off his RK and a new LED tail light. After my 70 mile ride last night i've got 220 miles on the rebuild and the wife is really on me about going for a ride so need to get the 500 miles on it to make her happy and we are good! Here's some pics of it yesterday and one of how it looked before the recent work. Im really happy with the way it turned out.

 

You really gonna put a seat on that pretty new paint on the rear fender?

Really?

Griz

 

You do realize that you just added 10 mph with that paint job don't you???

 

Looks great. Nice transformation!

 

I know right? I do have a fender bib so maybe i'll put that on under the seat, dunno if it will work or look goofy but we'll see.....


Yeah well thats what I was hoping for but the new bags will end up cancelling that out, and the struggle for better performance continues.

 

Wow! that is a dramatic change. It looks incredible! Cant beat black!

 

Damn, that is a looker!

 

Really noice! You have fine taste....

 

I thought it looked sharp before. Then I saw the after shots. +10MPH at least!

 

Beautiful sled!,
