Looks GREAT!!! I especially like the spotlights in conjunction with the new fenders. Awesome job! Have enjoyed following your progress and learning about my new to me bones along the way.

Looking very good indeed! Wish I was there already, I'm still sanding away on the new tins!

How did the install of the emblems go? Are they an easy fit? How did you get them to line up evenly on both sides?

Everything looks awesome, except for the tag. I'm not digging it at all. when looking at it from the front the silver on the back of it just draws your eye. Sorry

Great looking bike. Love the work, and that you did it yourself! More than what some people do...and I dig the tag too. Don't stress the guys that bolt on a new seat then talk crap about your bike.
