What about the aluminum strut vintage kit? Backordered? Date? This fender is holding up my custom paint. Metal Flake is old school. It'll also match the paint I'm going to have done. MUY GLAM!!

What was old, is new again. I'm having a custom paint job and helmet painted in metal flake by French Kiss Kustoms. I want to meld the old with the new in a seamless way!

Tracy, the aluminum rear fender kit is out of stock until 3/4/10. So the difference is only a week. Call up Roland and let him know he is messing with your time frame. He has been known to frequent some of the places I ride to on teh weekends. IF I see him he's gonna get an earful and you email address. OR, I could ride down to his shop and see what he has to say. Maybe a couple of extra c notes to grease his palm might change the speed of your products. LOL Drew

Hahaha . I'm sure you would for my sake Drew! I'll practice patience, and what for it to come in. I'll be back in Arizona then, so we'll see. When I can ride, mods take a back seat. I'm dying to get back to that warm weather!

Maybe you can come out to Laughlin, NV in April. I'll be there with my whole crew. I am also thinking about coming to AZ bike week. I can buy you a few beers at the least. One more rallyIam consierig hitting is the Rocky Point Rally in Mexico and if I go we will ride through AZ an and meet some friends in Chandler.

For anyone else who wants to know, Dr. V Twin is already a LaPera dealer so if you need something from them drop us a line. Drew
