I like the turn signals down there, you see that done in Japan a lot, I think they have to have turn signals over there so they came up with a way to be really subtle about it, they look good. I was surprised to see you say this was the first thing you've made considering you have a 92 page build thread going here.

Thanks man. First thing I ever made from a flat piece of metal. This ain't no build thread either...I'm not "building" anything here, that suggests I started from the ground up. just redoing some **** the way I like it. Thx again.

Yeah. They take a little getting used to cause the sidewalls are taller but yeah I can lean mine pretty far. Far enough to drag a hand through a turn. Not to mention, they're really sticky so during the summer they grip quite well.

Hey Dude. I’ve been away for a while assisting my mom. I hope that you are doing better. Your bike is looking good !!

FYI – Recently picked up a ’96 Softail Springer in need of much TLC … my next project bike.
