Bad *** bike. Everything fits correctly with each other. Love stripped down shovels,with the bare essentials need to go and stop.Diggin' that paint scheme also.

Thanks everyone, like I said, I painted it myself just sorta wingin' it as I went. First time I airbrushed anything and all work was done in my garage. Came out pretty decent. Not show quality paint but it's okay.

Nice old school chop. I liked my SU carb back in the 70's. Had a Carl's Speed Shop manifold with the beehive cover.

I can relate about painting your own bike. I did a few years ago. Air brushed some ghost flames and applied candyapple coats and clear coat. You will always be your own worse critic.
I like what you have done to the ol shovel. Enjoy riding it.

Very nice looking, definately could be in a magazine. Send in a pic to the horse and I bet it would get published.

Slapped me into the way back machine , nicely done . Noticing the naked front wheel I've got one of the old style small GMA single piston brake setups for the springers in a box somewhere never been on a bike . Needs a home and it's a safe bet I'll never run it , PM me if interested I'll make it worth your while .
