Nice ride, and I agree on the axle covers looking out of place. They belong on Ben Hur's Chariot. I think some clean chrome ones would fit the whole look.

and it makes easy work of a full wash now. I have the time to wash it during work so I am lucky. I have found there is no replacement for regular washing. It helps that my buddy is a professional photographer too.

The seat is a C&C low profile solo with a custom diamond stitch pattern in red. It is really comfortable and I absolutely love it.

I just worry about the rust. So I don't usually wash it with a hose too often. That most likely is part of my problem. I will try out this wax. Used to use a different product from them on one of my old show cars.

Drew, Your sled looks way better stripped down. You dont have all that crap on there hiding the old skoo beauty. I gotta get the shotgun. It looks sick lowered that much. Can you actually ride it that low in the back? Good job.

This is why you need the dryer. It has some serious kick and gets all the water. Takes about 30-45 minutes to dry top to bottom compeltely.

It makes washing bike a pleasure. there is a bigger one that is even more powerful that we have at the shop too.

I can ride the bike that low but don't. My pipes would scrape like mad as would my extremely long floorbaords. That is the beauty of air ride.
