Default Copper oil lines

Just completed changing over to hard lines... left a section of rubber on the ends "billy lane style".

Just got to get one of those spark plug wire separators to hold then together at the horizontal run at the bottom and will be all done!



Yes, I know there is a clamp missing...ran out and have to go to the Hardware store tomorrow to get more.

Man, vetto!
Nice bike! I dig a bike with simple, clean lines and minimal chrome!

That's the smart way to do copper lines!

Thanks. I was going to pipe them in but decided against it...I like the look this way (and less prone to cracking)
