Now, this is more like it. How many man-hours are in this so far?
Lotsa talent, that's for sure.
Paint or clear coat?

Well up to the last photos was about 2.5 months. There's a ton of hours for sure, I just haven't added them up yet.

We are going to leave the bike raw and do few bike shows, and once that is over we will paint it.

Thought about it for a bit, but when you anodize anything with weld seams , especially anything made out of sheet metal, it discolors around the welds and the heat affect zones which would give an uneven patchy look.
