Damn dude, it's even better than before! Now, if it were my bike, I'd have to fabricate some sort of rear seat rest, so as not to slide off that seat you got there....

did you get some matte clear for the tank? I dig the look, kind of industrial.

I guess I could clear coat it. For now I am just going to wipe it down with a oiled rag every now and then. I do the same to the chambers on my GT and they have been fine for over a year now.
