Well as promised, here is a couple of pictures of my rocker under construction. I know that some of the pics are blurry...sorry! I am hoping the change will be radically good. Here you see the forks have been changed, new 21 inch front wheel and tire plus new bars. Matching rear wheel, air ride, chrome inner primary, new lights, seat, forward controls and finishing parts will be installed as well. Then off to the paint shop. I can't wait to get it done. Let me know what you think! I am going to keep the blue, but new flames or something else you recommend will be applied. Thanks
WOW what a project for that beast you got there, cant wait to see it get together, look forward to seeing the forward controls and how it feels.
Thanks for sharing.
