Default Build Progress

Attached is a couple of pictures of my build so far. Since the pics, I have attached the front fender. This weekend I am planning on putting the rear fender and both wheels on. When I get my risers back (holes were threaded wrong from manufacturer) I will put my 14" Apes on. Almost ready to sit on it and make motorcycle noises. Next up is a floorboard kit and then getting and plumbing the brakes.

Nice. Reminds me of when I built my older bike. So are these all new parts or did you strip down an older bike?
