Hahaha, it don't hurt my feelings any.
This is just a test run anyhow. I will go through many ideas before I go with anything set in stone. Its my way of working out the kinks in a project before I ever start. Makes things go smooth this way.

I think it looks awesome. I like the gold look with the color scheme. Maybe the whole wheel in gold rather than just the spokes. Loose the plate holder on the fender. You will also need to replace the black switch housings.

was not a fan of chrome & gold untill I saw your fit up, it looks cool!!!
I like the gold spokes, you can get a feel when you look at the 2 pics, the chrome & the gold & chrome, the gold looks great that bike will stand out. Nice job on the photo shop.

I would like to see the difference between a 20" and 24" Heartland conversion.

Could you (with Marty F's approval) show the difference using one of Marty's pictures?

thnx
Robert

Of all the variations, I like your original idea the best. You are very very talented. Here is something I would do different. Go with an air cleaner that looks like a forty four magnum bullet. Around the edge, where a normal bullet casing says the caliber etc, you can have Harley Davidson TC 96 B. You can even have the center be copper colored like the primer in a real bullet.

I came up with the bullet air cleaner idea several years ago when I was thinking about building a Guns & Roses themed bike.
