Cafe sportster done-sort of
Is anything ever done? Just got mine back together and did a little shake down today. Thought I would take some pictures. Going to go with a gold emblem on the tank and maybe gold stripes down the middle of the tank and tail section. Add a oil level line on the oil tank like the English bike had and call it done.

Great work, I love café bikes. Those rims really do look good, with some gold on the tins, you will have a very sharp looking bike. I remember your post when you got your bike, it's a 1991 like mine as I recall. Nice to see how well she turned out.

It would look good with rear sets and club man bars. I may do the bars after I get the rear sets on. I am going to try another tank I have and see how it would look. It is not a harley tank. I did have a brain fade as I dumped two quarts of oil in it and it had wet sumped and almost over flowed the tank when I started it. Thank goodness it has a hose to drain the oil. Made for quick work on that. I also need some more disc for the supertrapp as it is still too quiet. I don't want it loud, but it still seems plugged up.
