Default Story's Change...

So this Sat we finally decided to do the changes, was a lot of work and with lots of help from (xjayx) we got it done...

New...
LA Choppers NiceCurves 16"... Jay cut and welded them for a streamline internal throttle.
HHI Brakemaster and HHI Switches, 2 left side PM grips, internal throttle cable, internal brakeline, and of course the wires also. Since the bars were coming off we also did the frontend... New trips (same) but new pro-one 3* trees, new bearing, races, and sliders... The only thing we re-used were the -2 under tubes.

The start... Sorry I didn't take to many pics phone was acking up...















Rolling the next morning...

Looks naked and awesome man. Not hard to get used to looking at. Thought someone else (forget who) was hiding the cables on a Lux? Wonder how it went for him.

+1 for innovation.

Hey bro that looks ****... Bars are clutter free and baby smooth...you will never look at stock bars the same way.. Kick *** bars you went with and the 3* trees give it a nice stance, dig the sleeves on the upper tubes..great job
