i would love to record the reaction of people at a gathering spot when find out this is not a HD bagger....:laughing:laughing beautiful work,sir.....
 
Thanks for the kind words fellas!! I am pretty happy with the outcome...

catch2otwo- No a buddy of mine did the leafing and pinstripe. I sprayed the primer and base coat, and my uncle sprayed the Kandy... I don't think i'm good enough to spray kandy yet.. haha

Cereal KLR- Yes. I didn't want my petcock to feel neglected because I pay more attention to my petdog... so I painted it.

Not as fast as I look.
That is a very nice bike. You bothered to do a suicide shift and all. Amazing. The attention to detail is awe inspiring. Congratulations on a project well done.
