Default Updated pics, DG seat finally on.
This seat was a pain to install, I bought new hex head bolts from Home Depot and I modified the frame caps to fit over the seat mounting tabs. I am pretty much done with the Rocker I will only add some chrome here and there and install a 6000k bi-xenon HID headlight, the major mods are done for now. Now it's time to put some serious miles on it.

I took some pics today, I will take better pics after giving the bike a good detail. The chopping of the rear fender and the airbrushing was done by www.pairadicepaint.com Thanks to Rob and pairadicepaint for the great work.

First here is a pic of when I first got it, totally stock



Here are the latest pics
