That is a fine looking scoot, man.
I really like the lines.
In the middle pic, the forks and the pipes seem to be the same angle.
A couple questions, if you don't mind.
How does she ride, going down the road?
How tall from the ground are them grips?!?!?
What about 7 foot...

stable, but rough. kinda like riding a bicycle over bumps. takes a bit of getting used to if you've never rode a rigid.
about 6'2" off the ground (tops of the mirrors) when its sitting level.
and I'm 6'8" tall. wanted to build a bike that I wouldn't look stupid riding.
I beleive I have succeeded.
RE: Its done?!
man your bike is awesome... i could never ride it, and that hurts a bit and i think takes a punch out of my MAN CARD... but thost pipes are great... as Scott said... some great lines! that is awesome when you are using stuff that usually throws off a bikes line (apes, ext forks, low pro seat, up kick pipes) but your bike ties in so well! have you thought about removing the tank badge? that stripe down your tank looks great without a badge... here is a crude photoshop...sorry i am not very good

You said you were going for that 70's chopper look, and I'd say you pulled it off in spades. Looks just right. I like Joe's ideaof removing the tank badge, too.

RE: Its done?!
I really appreciate the comments! as for the badges...I had the tank badges off at one point but had to re-install thanks to a dumb@ss whose door knocked a dimple into the left side of the tank, right where the badge was. so they will probably stay until i can afford to repair or replace the tank.
