Nothing better than kick starting your bike to life. It creates a bond between you and the bike that you can't get with a button. Not only that but when kick starting is your only option you learn a lot about how your bike works and what it likes. 
Sorry Jack, I had to say it. Your responses were too good; on the other thread. Not to reset some here.
Seriously, the bike looks great. I like that look. In fact I really enjoy seeing the new culture of bikes going back to that look. Rags like Cycle Source, The Horse, Easyrider, and people like yourself keep it out there really helps.
You just need more chrome.....about $8K worth.....then, then it will be a show and go bike.
Sorry had too......Bwahahhahhaha.....you spent your money already very wisely.Last edited by "Dutch"; Jan 30, 2010 at 12:32 PM.

I was thinking about dusting the bike with glitter and then hanging a few disco ***** over it to reflect light on the bike. Also considered suspending it over a small fishing pond before surrounding the whole display with chrome plated ****** (why in the hell is the word "b a r b e d" censored) wire and tinsel.
Thanks for the compliments. Seems like the younger generation is really bringing back the interest in cool budget built chops and bobbers. Guys working on and building their own bikes along with friends and seeing what they are capable of. Getting back to the old days. I'm more interested in seeing the insignificant bracket that a guy made on his own bench than I am in seeing the shiny new part that was bought over the counter.

Not to toot my own horn but I don't need to go to bike shows because it's always a show whenever the bike is sitting still, no matter where I go. 
But seriously, people really appreciate and are drawn to the older style bikes no matter where you go. They seem to appreciate the work that goes into them as well as the style. The ones who don't are generally the douche bags who are more interested in how much money they've spent on their **** and they look down on the bike and think to themselves "Can't you afford a new bike?" I've actually had ******** say **** like that!

Get some spotlights to hit that disco ball. Hey, got to go. I have to go make my custom chrome hand grips over at Drag Specialties. Later.
