Your bike is so fine right now that even if it was painted puke-n-snot yellow it would still be beautiful!!!

I really like it. I think that you have a great idea there of having two sets of tins and having the bike "convertable". Can't wait to see the pics.

Can't go wrong with flames. Old school, or subtle ghost. I've had em both. Yours look great. But I do like that silver and white setup.. You mentioned you kept the tins, so you're really in business. Like having two bikes. Well Done!

I like the stock colors.
It is your ride and should please you, screw all others.
You can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself, or something like that.
