Looks good! I agree about the wheels not fitting in. I also think the seat looks a bit out of place on that bike. But overall, it looks good!

Yeah it's the factory 2.2 gallon tank, I get about 80 miles to reserve on the highway, then like 105 dry, I love it and would never change it.

Well I used to have a Sundowner and thought it was way to big looking for this bike, and the stock pillow seat sucked, this is a Ultima gel seat, pretty comfortable. You gotta be into the classic sportster look to appreciate it.

Nice bike. I like those old 2.2 gal Sportster tanks - they just look right. I need to get off mine and stretch after 80 or 90 miles anyway, so the capacity doesn't bother me. Mine has a similar look, with the contrasting side panel paint.

Hell Yeah, looks good. I agree about changing to spoked rims. Man, I love them 2 tone paint schemes. Nice looking ride.
