Thanks a lot Warrant. Yeh I didn't think it would turn out nearly as good as it has. But I am my own worst critic too. And a little OCD to boot.
I'm pretty pleased. Not sure about the handlebars, but I think they will grow on me.

Thanks bro! I don't wrench professionally, just as a hobby. I take my stuff to J.C. Cycles when it needs something I can't or don't want to jack with or don't have the specialty tools for. Now that I've gotten this thing together, I'm actually thinking about selling it and building something else. Kinda want to do a bagger now!
