Sweet! Nice job dude!
I've got the same bars and they're awesome! I like your seat too, I'm currently making my own front bracket for my new Redtail Leather seat, on the frame mounted of course

Keep up those good mods!

Good work. Man I wish I had a larger garage. It's hard working on a bike in my garage with 2 bikes in it. I have to practically squeeze myself into positions.
