Default I'm making progress

I installed the chrome front end yesterday! It is really looking good. Too bad I don't have enough coins to polish the rotors anddo the calipers right now. All I need now is for mybraided lines to come in and I can get back on the road.

Looks great. I did mine a while back and it really makes the bike look sharp!

Really starting to look great.

I want to do mine as well. But I need to chrome my hand controls first, and want to do a 95" kit. Then lower legs, rotors and calipers. I thought about just doing the caliper skins, they look good, but says they can't be used with braided lines. Not sure how true that is though. Any of you guys know?

Looks GREAT - Did mine and put a progressive ft lowering springs in at the same time... Not that I needed to as I'm 6'4" but like the looks and improved handling...

Lookin good
I just did a set of 80 spoke tubeless wheels. The front end will be next years project. I seriously think my wife would kill me in my sleep if I told her I was going to do them now.

I did a chrome exchange, which saved me big bucks. I got the lowers for $165.

Good deal, but I still think she'd kill me
