Well we here at The Powder Pro, pulled a late one for TJ last night, finished up around 3:30 am so that he would be able to pick up all his parts on his return trip home, to save him on shipping. Parts came out great! the Ember red sunglo is very hard to photograph, but here are the pics, ill snap some pics of the crash bar and bag guards once we get the rest all wrapped up, also got your turn signals all wired up and ready to go!

I wish I could afford to do all of that right now. It would be so much easier with it all torn apart.

The parts look amazing. I'll pick them up tomorrow when I'm up there and will hopefully have it all back together by the first week of Jan.

Additionally, I decided to do finish off the light transition to LED. Awhile back I put in the Trucklite Phase 7 and Custom Dynamics Dynamic Ringz in the front. Today my tail LEDs and plasma rods arrived. Just one more thing to put on when I get it back!

Yep, I will never buy another jack.

I actually learned how much all of the bike parts matter to the way the jack works though. Once I took the front end off it became pretty unbalanced. Decided to strap it down so it wouldn't go backwards off the jack while wrenching on it.
