Default New Bars and a few other winter mods
Finally got my new Zbars wired and on, blackout the triple trees and lower forks, and air brushed my tank and fenders. As money allows I plan on lowering the back with some black shocks, and eventually replacing the stock pipes and rush slipon, just can't decide what pipes to go with yet.
The flames are temporary, I can wipe them off with some oops cleaner, but I wanted to see how they'd turn out.

Thanks guys, I was a little torn on the flames so I sprayed them on with basically model car enamel first and a cheap model air brush. They will keep as long as I'm careful putting gas in, but soon I'm going to clean them off and respray with auto paint. I'm going to invest in a better air brush that I can control a little better before I spray it with auto paint. The final flames will be more ghosted and subtle but the same color.
