Best looking Duracell I've seen. You get a lot of extra credit for doing this in Japan! I know from experience that doing all this kind of work in Japan was a lot harder and more expensive than most of you could imagine.

I like, you did a great job. The seat is perfect. I like the rear fender, makes the bike stand out from the rest. Hats off to you!

Don't worry what others think, as long as you are happy with it that is all that matters.

If everyone thought the same the world would be a boring place.

Thanks! I'm actually pretty ecstatic with the way she turned out. I personally think she looks wicked and runs even better. But that crack in the paint at the tip of the rear fender is bugging me. I'm debating putting this Kury fender tip on to hide it:



It's not overly gaudy and I thought it may look okay. What say all of you?

It kicks ***! Hey, don't ever second guess yourself based on what other people will think. It's YOUR bike. Trick it any way you like. It's all about individuality man. Keep it in the wind. Ride Proud.
