Default Winter Project

My winter project was a new front end from AME and new paint on the tank, fenders and side plates. The front end is 14 degree rake with 8" over tubes. I know there has been some controversy here about this type of mod, but I have put 3,000 miles on the bike since March and it rides as well as stock, is solid, and I love the look. The guys at AME are great.
