Damn, that's clean . . . most excellent! Don't mind if I steal that idea to mount the LED's do you?

I'm not running any turn signals, so no left right switches for me. My headlight (hi-off-lo) and air compressor switch are on the fork panel, along with the idiot lights (mini LEDs).

The wheels are both 18". In hindsight, I wish Id of gone with a 21" up front. Here's a pic of the lights/switches.

Steal away. If I can give you a reason to get out in the garage and mess with your bike, then I'm all cool with that.

Nice job. Damn nice. Really like the clean bars.

Diggin' the tank badges from 1961/62. They have always been my personal favorite.

I wasnt gonna run any badges, but the tank just looked like one big blob of black without them, especially since I dont have a dash to break stuff up.

Wet roads do kinda suck, but I can live with it. If I get tired of it, I can always put a fender on I suppose.

the round oil tank and the tear-shaped a/c cover , combined with the short fender and cool exhaust give your bike a great classic old school chopper look

not a fan of that style of handlebars , but you did an incredible job of cleaning everything up
