Very nice and tastefully done.  I have some similar ideas in mind for mine but I need to keep a passenger seat or the missus will be very unhappy.

I like the superfunkaliciousness of the rectangular amber fog light, but I'm sad to see the tangerine flake paint gone.

I'm curious how the high pipe will work out for you. I like it too.

Oh, and what's the story on the velocity stack? I've been looking for one that fits.

Well...  The paint was from someone else's bike and it was in a magazine.  I want something that will be uniquely mine.

The high pipe is working out good so far.  It gets a little hot at stops but not too bad. I can't really feel any heat at all when riding.

The velocity stack came from eBay a long time ago.  It was a little big but stays on fine with a clamp.

Thanks for the feedback!

The seat that was on it before doesn't look original.  Do you know what it was?

Not paladin, thinking someone in Tx or Az.

Thinking it's a Vstar seat.

Looks similar to mine!  That's why I asked.  But mine is custom.

man, I love the way that bike looks! i'm a fan of that style, even kinda like the square headlight. also, love the handlebars. I would like to get a pair like that or some narrow, lane-splitter type z-bars.
great job
