Good looking bike! The first thing I noticed were the custom side covers. I take it you painted it yourself? I see a testing board leaning against the garage with the same color. How many miles on it?

Thanks guys. Pics Re sized. I just won a right side cover for 26 bucks, So it will be a step closer to perfect. Yep The tank and fenders were painted by myself, and the side covers are just sheets of metal with strips painted. Its got 34,xxx miles, and still runs great. |

Yeah. I was worried that I would paint them, and not like it, But it turned out nice. Batter than I thought. The chrome was rough anyways. |
