If anything, the tank turned out better than the fender...

Hell yes man, turned out AWESOME. ...I'd be MUCH more proud of that than any $1,500 paint job, AND you did it all alone. Kick ***.

aww man, stunning, you sure you rattled it? My favorite mod on your bike is the Speedo in the tank. I couldn't wait to see it with paint, Stunning.

Holy **** Sandwich! I think that speedo-relocation makes you king of the mountain in the sportster world!

Sir, I would be honored to ride by your side during the Zombie Apocalypse!! I knew I named my bike "Rapture" for a reason!

Thanks Moz. The speedo was my son-in-law's (Ozzie's) idea and handiwork. It really helps clean up the front end. But it was not an easy mod. Like the bars, there were some long hours invested in that.

Thanks Jackal. I was very hesitant to do it at first. It's one of those things that looks scarey as **** and way above my paygrade, and you just have to commit, do some research and plow forward. I am so glad I did it now. Not just because of the money saved but it was a great learning experience and it does feel great knowing I did it. I'm gonna love riding down the road looking at zombie symbol.

Hey thanks SportE. Yup, rattle canned the whole thing. You watch some of the youtubes online with guys rattle canning bikes and cars and go..."nahhh, there's no way you can get that crap to look good. But actually, you can.

Ya, the speedo is one of my favorite mods on the bike. It's so subtle but makes a huge difference overall.

Thanks Kaput. I would be happy to ride next to you and "Rapture" anytime.
