Default Kiwi Leaf finished and ride report..

The bike got finished last nite and it was a balmy 45 degrees today so I stopped by the shop and took her for a test ride.. to my surprise it rides smoother than the oe setup did ( after I had it slammed ).. the only issue is turning radius ( see pics ) might have to shave the neck a little.

Your bike is just amazing,especially that head on shot. I've gone back time after time to look at your previous pics. Great work.

I don't know if you'd like it better ,but when I was running the black outer primary with the skull derby cover I masked off the center portion and painted the outer ring with texture black. Just seemed to flow with the black primary better,but it looks great either way.

Good Luck

Tom
