Yeah I think next year I may do some 14" apes if I'm not digging the 12's....got the wires ran and the left side soldered today, hope to have the bars done tomorrow. Powder was done by a guy in Oak Grove, his shop is called Prodigal Son Powdercoating. GREAT prices and great work, not to mention great to work with.

Got some more work done today, despite enjoying far too many frosty treats last night....still waiting on wheels so I can button everything up. Ordered them almost 5 weeks ago from blackbikewheels.com....not thrilled about that.
btw already wishing I went with taller apes....oh well that will be next winters project.

I'm really liking the striping. The whole bike is coming together nicely. Sorry to hear about the wheels taking so long. Black Bike does awesome work but it does suck to have to wait.
