Decided to do a chop job on the standard over the weekend and not spend a $1000 .I also prefer the looks of slim 150 rear tire even though the 200 are very nice.I got a custom paint job in the near future also..

I started off concerned, but it looks really good. Can't wait to see it finished with paint.

Nice job! I don't think it even needs paint, the black that's on it now looks great IMO. That might just be on my winter list now. Hmmm......
