Excelent job and so fast too. You should check out

They have an awsome forum thats right up your alley. Don't worry about the sceptics, there are still buttloads of anniversary models out there because they were overproduced to make them worth anything.

I think the chopper looks better than the Sportster did. I never did like the Anniversary ones... (especially the new 105th... that copper color is hideous)

Being that it's an anniversary model I wouldn't have done anything that was'nt reversable, but thats just me. Looks great by the way, enjoy the new ride.

LoLife: sweet Chopper! I liked the bike in it's stock formbut you have made one Hell of a nice ride outta it! And I agree that thereis not any real extra value in the anniversary models as of yet. I'd certainly feel better about paying more for the bike in it's chopper form than it's stock form even though the 100th looked wayyyyyy better than the Fugly 105th bikes.
