Nice job, and yes shame we can't see more of the rear wheel.. Speaking of wheels they deserve matching brakes and pulley!

That slim looks sick! The wheels look great. I might consider a matching belt pulley and rotors seeing as you do not have bags on the bike. Or just black out the center of the rotors you have and the pulley but matching stuf always looks better.

Regardless I think the bike came out great and I really like the Slammer 7 in black. Thanks so much for your business.

Did you do a 2" tank lift in the front and rear of the tank, or just the front?
