Sharp.

I would get some red wires I don't like the yellow.


You been mudding on that thing. Those tires are dirtier than mine and I drive up a 1 mile dirt driveway everyday. After all the rain that driveway is more like a mud road than dirt.

The only bad part about my new paint is the ghost flames are barely visible unless your in the direct sunlight.

I thought that was the whole idea of ghost flames == that they be barely visible until the right conditions i.e. angle, light, whether they are looking for flames or not, then WOW there's flames in there!!!! I mean it should be a surprise, also I can just make them out in pic and I think they look fine. Just my 2 cts. but I think your bike looks good

Thanks for the positive input, I love the job the guy did. I was just commenting on the fact that what he showed me in the shop under his artificial sun light is different than the pop that I get under the actual sunlight.

Other than that I love it
