the money shots.......still need to get those biltwell keystones on and some mid controls i think. i'm also gonna chop down those front sig. stalks now that the rears have been removed. oh yeah, been working on my track bike during all of this too (my wife has had about enough).
i will bro. my sister who lives in jacksonville has been bugging me to send her some video clips of both bikes so i'll send the links once they're posted and update your picasa web album that i think needs to be resurrected!

Just got a 2003 1200C and this site is inspiring me to work on my bike... just need to clean up my baby barn for work area...Lots of great work and ideas. keep it coming every one... Don't have to pay the stealer for a nice looking ride!!
well....bike's all buttoned up. got my batt. cover back from the powdercoater the other day and slapped it on and took it for a ride. everything held up good. i did bottom out the fender twice though on two big *** pot holes but i think if i dial out the rebound on my shox i should be able to do away with that. it wasn''t bad but it did scrape. i'm definitely gonna look into mounting a new fender to the swingarm so i can slam the fender super close to the wheel and bottoming out will be a thing of the past. here's some completed pics. i tapped a lot of people (too many to remember at the moment but you know who you are) on the site so thanks for everyone's tips, help and advise.....
