Thanks for the comments. I have done apes on my last two bikes. It was time for a change. One of them were mini apes.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys. Here are some updated pictures. I was very pleased with how well the bike cleaned up. Also this paint polishes up so nicely. Still waiting on the front brake line. And the cam is on the way now.

And please ignore all the kiddie toys.
