El Rey, nice pics, you've revived my intrest in some tank badges. I have a set of reproductions that need to be painted on the inside. Need to pull the ones I have on there now and see if there is any marking on the paint.



bpav, what speakers are those? Uniq?

He's got Wide Whites in the back, With the exception of the Apes and the paint, it looks pretty stock to me.

It is, but it's done tastefully, not over done.

Excellent paint, fishtails, wide whites, old school air cleaner, round mirrors, half-moon floorboards, fender rails front and rear, chrome front end, chrome taillight collar. Good looking bike.

I just bought a chrome rail for my 09 with a mustang. I took a chance and it doesn't fit. Made of 08 and previous frame design...FOR SALE.....if anyone is interested, its in classifieds with no interest shown but maybe someone here would want it...its the one off ebay and it really is nice...$80...brand new

Dave had the passenger boards/pegs removed. Guess he has no intention of any 2 up riding.
