Well, now would be a good time to add a chrome transmission top cover. And if you're gonna do that you might as well buy the whole kit and do the cam cover, tranny side cover,primary and rocker housings too I added the chrome engine kit to mine ( my bike was identical to your 3 months ago, color and all) but have never gotten around to installing the trans top cover.......oil tank looks to be in the way!

 

well mo,that sounds good but id rather get me a dakota digital speedo/tach first,then theres alway old winchesters riflesthat i cant stay away from(heres a tip;dont collect guns especially old ones cause its a disease lmao) and the list goes on and on and on,,,,,se pipes,different front wheel,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,grrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

And you are doing this why?

 

Isn't he the gentleman who had the scratch on his oil tank?

BTW: what color did you have it painted? Did you match the rest of the tins? That'd look sharp!

 

im getting it done cause it will clean up the lines and blend in great!! if i had real big dough i woulda ghost flamed the whole bike! and no tx outlaw my oil tank was perfect black b4 i removed it and it will match the pacific blue pearl once its done

 

Ahhh...... sorry, thinking about another person on here. Make sure to post pics of the bike when everything is back together. I'm sure it's going to look great!
