Default Man This SUCKS!

I've been doing some pretty major mod's on my bike for the last couple day's. I'm doing the front end on my bike as well as having my wheels powdercoated, twisted spokes installed and installing a lowering kit. Anyways It's so sad just looking at my bike sitting on the lift with no forks and no wheels. My local dealer ordered the parts and I've just been sitting idle for the last two day's waiting for them. Hopefully they come in today so I can get this thing back together and post some pic's and hopefully get a ROTM nod for April.[sm=smiley2.gif]

I know what you mean. I just put on black lowers, black triple trees, wild one 501 8" T-Bars, black levers, chrome luggage rack,& V&H bigshot saggereds.(Basicallly I had the whole front end off) I finished it up late last night. Now there is a bad weather coming in today and tomorrow so I can't even give it a test ride. Oh well, it gives me extra time to go over every nut and bolt again. Sunday is another story. Clear with a high of 69 WHOOO HOOOO.

I'm praying the parts come in today. Instead of chrome I went with black sliders and cans and I'm having my rims and hubs powdercoated black. It should look pretty sick. I'm still waiting on the cans and my lowered springs, then I can put the front end back together. Man I can't wait to see what it will look like. I did plenty of work in paintshop but I want to see the real thing.
