Default What Next?
Well guys I'm stumped. I have zero style and for the most part everything I buy/do is for a purpose, not for esthetics. Cleaned her up a bit today, and I noticed she looks kind of plain jane. What would you all recommend I do to spice her up a bit???

Wait, I lied. I have some spade valve stem covers inbound...lol, but those were only bought because the factory one on the rear is missing.

Dude I ride the **** out of this thing! Just like most, I 'd like to ride more, but oh well I ride when I can...

Going to Laconia, Sturgis (again), Myrtle Beach Bike Week, Rolling Thunder, and Daytona this year, so I think I ride often enough or at least that's what the wife says! LOL

You could always add skulls and flames to it. . . . . Seriously though, I really like it as is. I know, that's no fun, but I'm a 'minimalist' type of person. If you're bored enough, you could do something with the wheels.

I like it as it is. Just my opinion, I like "motorcycle" as a design scheme.

Get rid of some of the black and add some crome. Also need some logo on the tank. Glossy paint would help. Drag bars too

Get one of those chrome pieces for your battery box , other than that she's perfect! I wouldn't change anything else.
