Really nice transformation! I agree that a blacked-out front end would complete the theme. It's a good feeling to know you did the work yourself!

I'm really liking it all-around, but then I'm a bit biased. Love those wheels and seat. I'm planning on going with copper-braided plug wires and cables from Namz. I like the look of polished copper against the chrome.

Your bike looks great. I think the time you put into the rotors and pulley was well worth it... came out nice.

The Duracel Rabbit is really beating the drum. Great job. I wish I was able to do all that on my ride.
