Looks good man... nice work.

While your stripping parts off, how about the reflector on your lowers? They'd look good painted or powdercoated black.

Looks good. You should def look into getting a fork brace though. You wouldnt think the front fender makes a big difference, but when i took mine off i got a lot of shake at speeds over 60. the fork brace cleared all that up and made it handle better.

thanks. those dam reflectors. started to take them off but got side tracked. I'll probably paint the fork lowers this weekend depends on the weather. I'd rather be ridin. Fork brace is in the future. Maybe lower the bike an inch. And more black.
