Thanks for all the replies.
To answer the questions:

really great looking bike , but you know saying it's 'finally finished' is like throwing a red flag in front of a bull ...
#1... lose the front fender , you're already going to get so wet in the rain that it won't make any more difference
#2... 21" front wheel
#3... smaller air cleaner cover , show off that blacked out motor !
#4... small tank lift , 1/2" or 1" , just to give a more aggressive stance to the bike
#5... draw a line following the curve of the back of your seat . cut off the fender following that line , will look more finished than the straight line you have now
there ya go , 5 suggestions , and you thought you were finished

I ordered a replacemnt air cleaner cover today from http://www.azece.com/aircover.htm
I havent decided on the front fender but am contemplating a powdercoated fork brace and ditching the fender.
A homemade tank lift is in the works.
Im also planning on swapping out the rear tire to a 200 and some serious motor mods.

As long as you have money, you'll never be "Done". Let's all just hope and pray the money never runs out.

fork brace sounds cool . and if you don't like it it's easy to swap back
looking forward to seeing more mods
