Default Just finished puttin some stuff on...

I just finished installing some stuff, thought I would share. I was really trying to clean up the front end a little bit. Did a turn signal relocation, added smoked lenses, added 3" capped risers, swapped the wrinkle black speedo housing for a chrome one. First pic is the only one I have of the front end before, and the second is how it looks now. The next thing to go will be that sticker on the forks! What do you guys think?

Just a few small things makes a big difference, looks great. However, that sticker is criminal.

In the 2nd pic is that a dent in the tank or just some weird reflection? It is right at the badging.

Unfortunately it's a dent. Came with the bike when I bought it. I can't decide if I just want to get the dent fixed or swap tanks so I can mount the speedo on there. Either way it will be a winter project so I don't have to be down at all during the summer. haha

I was VERY lucky to find an older gentelman who was in his 70s who did street rods for years and retired and did bikes in his basement. And I got it done for $600.00 and he used HOK cobalt blue and oriental blue if you look around you may find the same kinda deal I put in a differant pic of bike so you can see more of the paint
