Warg,
I really like your bike! It has class and style. There is a point to where you have to decide whether your going to keep that look or take it over the top. It is possible to get caught in between those two looks.

I would'nt do engine mods unless your engine needs an overhaul, then yes beef her up.

If that sik sled you have were mine, the only mods I would add to it, is a chrome swing arm (not cover) and chrome calipers. I'm not a fan of the nacelle, but I don't dis em either.

I think your sled is first class as it is also, so good luck whatever you do!

I know something you could do that would look cool as hell!
Mount a chromed out 50 caliber machine gun outfitted with a night vision scope to your apes.


Seriously, the light bar and nacelle would look good.

Thanks Jim. The engine work will wait til it's needed. Except maybe cams. Calipers are coming too.
