Got a new Slim!!
Traded in my Switchback. Not that it was a bad bike, had a lot of great features, but I got pulled by the Slim.
I am old school, and I like the ride height of a soft tail so it was a no brainier.
The hardtail look with all the old school features (ya gotta dig the Cats Eye dash!) was just too much! I was ready for a change and that was it.
So I start my adventure making subtle and personal changes.
First, the tank emblem.
Later on, most likely a different seat, handle bars and some pinstriping. I'm really thinking about a Sparto tailight, the rear fender looks empty.
Where can I find some vintage looking red hand grips?

A friend of mine also traded her Switchback for a Slim. She has the red one and has powder coated all the chrome. Congrats it's a great bike.
