Looks good! I want to see more..

I think you have linked the thumbnail versions of the pics though, they all look a bit small.

Also the 1st link (to the whole album) asks for a password for the album.

Great job, and awesome photo trail of everything that was done. :)

BTW, what sort of chemical stripping agent did you use to take off the old paint? :-?

I like it, and hey, it matches your van, if that is your van, with the orange/rust stripes

Wow, fantastic job! :o Everything: the handlebars, headlights, hardbag brackets, the seat, and especially the paint (heavy metalflake flames, whoo!), looks awesome!

I have a tendency to end up riding in the rain sometimes though (American NW, blah :P), so leather seats are probably something I can only dream of. ::)
Speaking of rain, where'd you get the little mudflap on the front fender, that'd be a handy little thing to have.

what kind of paint did you use on the engine? i'd like to paint the bottom half of my savage engine black, like the s40!

Sweet sled! Tons of detail. I don't care how big a Harley snob someone might be, he'd have to give props on this bike, or he's got no soul. Cheers! :D

Thats a fine lookin job you guys did. I am a bit surprised that with all the "Comfy Highway machine" mods youve done, you havent put a Wingerline & some highway pegs on. I dont have all that fancy work to protect & I would consider doing that.
Are you planning on painting the bags or are you digging the contrast?

Hi John_D the mud flap you ask about came from a guy here in the UK who was selling some Highway Hawk bits and pieces and had this, which i bought off him and fitted the studs in myself, just to make it look a bit different.
here is a link to one
