A nice line with that orange color on the inside of the stack would look **** in my opinion.
as would a bead round the outside edge of the wheelz

Thank's Branner, means a lot man!

Haha Alain you can come over here and work for free anytime my friend! I'll still be getting on here when I can and sharing the new builds, I'll still be the same humble man weather I succeed or fail.
The orange pin stripes as you and splat sugested I'm giving some thought, the wheels idea would look great

1004ron this is something Im thinking of doing. I'm going to do a couple more coats of clear after giving it some loving with 1500 wet and dry, I want the tank to be like glass. It come up brilliant off the gun, but I'm being ultra picky, and I was thinking I might do the mounts black then

Haha yeah the name for me came easier, it just works in many ways. It'll take some time to get things up and going to the point we can sell parts but we will defintely be sharing with you guys as soon as things are ready. We're going to put a lot of our time to start with in getting a couple more bikes ready

SKT thanks man that's great to get appreciation for the time spent on hear sharing the ins and outs. No matter your skills there's always something to learn and that's what I dig about reading other people's buipd posts.

Steven thank you, it's slow but moving forward still
