The bike is looking great, but what's up with your wheels? Spoke in front, stocker alloy in back?

I don't think you're finished yet!

@ Sam, I have not decided yet what I am going to do with the rear wheel yet. I may end up getting a solid polished one. I would hate to have to clean spokes on a rear wheel

I went riding yesterday with my buddys and I have decided that I am going to do a wide glide front end. I think that will be the icing on the cake. Especially when I add a 3 degree rake with it

I can only go about 120 miles still before I have to hit reserve.
