I like this. Really nice work!

Thanks, still missing a couple parts. Speedo, keyed ignition matching frame, and risers are on the way. Brake line and heat shield/muffler will be on the way this week. Bike looks killer with fresh paint and the mods that have been done.

Fighting myself on pulling the headlight and tail light for my personal bike! Keep telling myself they don't add much value but you never know could be the piece that tips the potential buyer in the right direction as well.

Just ordered heads for my bike they will be shipped off to fuelmoto as soon as they get here for porting, springs, and larger valves. Decided not to go with the S&S heads because I didn't want to have to run their rocker boxes and compression releases and everything. Too much coin just to run S&S heads. Should be here next week and bike should be mostly back together in about 3 weeks. Enjoying riding the lowrider for now!

Everything's installed and she's runnin once again! This thing absolutely hails now. Tons more power than last season. Dyno in a week and a half and then I'll take it out to the drag strip after that just to have a little fun and not have to worry about getting arrested while doing it! Loving the new cams and Head set up!

Runs awesome and looks great with the front breaks, front suspension is going to need some beefing up after riding a bike with cartridges up front its hard to go back to stock. Brake dive is pretty crazy with this dual disc set up. Cant wait to get it dynoed next week!

Thanks guys, Front suspension will be the next thing up to change. After riding the lowrider I put the premium suspension in I cant stand this stock crap. Also don't want to half *** it so I'm hoping to save up for some ohlins cartidges and then a T Sport Fairing after that. Project is never finished but at least I can ride it again! Also will be blacking out the fender struts and pulling the sissy bar off tomorrow.

Brakes are getting better with every ride need to get some new pads up front but they are working for now until I can figure out which pads are best.
