chopped the remaining struts off, grinded them down and painted. dropped off my fender at the powdercoater. once i get that back, prolly in a week, i'll drop the wheels off to get the firestones mounted and balanced. oh yeah, swapped out the bat wing turn signal relocators i had up front (lol..hated those things) and installed my dk breather bolts. pennsy doesn't require turn signals at all so i might just remove them bitches and with that said, might mount a stop light out back now instead. I'M LOVIN MY NEW MANCAVE, THERE IS A GOD!
EDIT**as much as i love my biltwells, i think a set of attack bars is now a must...what do you guys think? i love these bars in the last pic (made by rene @ mercurymoto).
Looks good man, i'm all over the japanese influenced style... I dig the attack bars, but you cant internally wire them, and I wasnt ready to relocate all my switches... Yet.
I settled for a set of biltwell friscos, upright, chopped them narrow, no pullback.
If you want something custom, check out steffan @ zombie performance. Master of tight narrow lane splitting style handlebars.
I personally would be doing something that exhaust, looks good, but just dosnt really go with the style.
yup....attack bars can be had without without moving all the switches and they dont look bad at all even routing the cables outside if you do it right. rene @ mercurymoto will be making them for me should i go that route, dude is gnarly. as for the exhaust, thats the next thing to go. prolly settling on stock headers with some custom tips tig'd on the ends and some dei wrap. thanks.
Hell yeah! About time I see you get off your *** and make some progress! Looks good so far - can't wait to see fender pics! You wanna sell your old seat or bars?

After just a lowsy 30 mile ride today, I'm about to say my bike is no longer 'rideable'. I will be doing something soon. I don't even wanna get on it anymore - that's how I know it's time for a change.
