It getting close to 40K, but the bike has been very well cared for by the PO and myself. The paint is nearly flawless, besides a few chrome pieces like right side front exhaust shield (a few boot scuffs), and it shows very well. The black wrinkle finish on the engine is very nice, which is surprising for its age. It's not bad all for a 15 year old bike that gets ridden regularly.

You're doing a great job, keep it up. It's a very pretty machine.

Here's my HS. Finally got the front wheel on last night...pardon the bluewall, my Street Glide got a bath last night, tonight it's the Springer's turn.



Waiting on a new back wheel. Ran into an issue with the original one, and Sinister is taking care of me. Hope to have it soon.

Mine a couple of weeks after I bought it new in '08...



As of a few months ago...











Today I am dropping off my H-D 1.25 Springer risers at the powder coater to have them done in gloss black so that I can finally install my H-D wide Springer beach bars. I am also working on a custom tail light set up that will completely eliminate all of the current rear lighting for something a little more "ole' school".

Thanks. Sometimes everyday but at least once a week. I just finished a 240/8-inch stretch on my ZX10R so been riding that one lately.

Thanks C. Real nice to hear. Your bike look also great, it's totally different as my XB but I love that look.
