good start.

now its time to hide that ugly rats nest of wires under your tank, its really easy, just some zip ties and it will clean the whole smash up, coil is another good mod to do, the wires are a must....keep it up man

I like the direction you're going with it. I would clean up that fender chop a bit either by taking a straight edge to the bottom of the fender rail and drawing a straight line to the back and chopping off everything under that line and then smooth out the corners.Or just round off the corners real good as it sits either way it'd look better. You could also chop off quite a bit more fender if you started your cut from the end of the fender rail. Just a thought.
