What a great theme, and a beautiful piece if art work. very refreshing to see someone break from the skulls and flames and come up with something original.

Nice!! I really like the ghost stars and the silver surrounds! The guy is a real artist.

Thumbs up Paint!

Brother, that is one smokin' hot paint job on your tins! Lovin' the stars, the girls, the color combos, everything.....

You gotta' post some pics of the bike when it's all back together.....

Wear cotton gloves, and wrap them in plastic while you are installing them!

Yep, that looks great. I want to have mine painted soon.

I'm curious what you watch out for when you're putting the new ones back on. Where's the pitfalls?

I wont wear gloves of any kind due to bad hands and the fact it gets slicker with cotton.The worst thing is dropping a piece .The old split tanks were kind of a mess to get them where you wanted them your self.The back fender is where I allways make the big mistake and it has usually been a dropped nut right on the paint>I now take masking tape and make a bra so to speak with a old piece of blanket on the tops of the fenders and have a pair of extra hands to help get the struts up.I make sure I dont have to many tools and nuts etc in my pocket or hands.I would say the normal person wouldnt have a issue just me
