Thanks all.
I'll probably collect my bike Easter Tuesday (as in, day after Easter Monday), jobs done ? Nada
General service = Changed oil & filter, air filter (I hope...) and spark plug.
I provided new tires and inner tubes.
Replaced HD side rails as fitted by previous owner with OEM as sourced by SavageDML (Thanks, Darrel !!!
) so now I can also have the bagger side rails.
Rescheduled for next October:
- 4 gal. Dyna tank conversion and custom paint job,
- 26" superbike handlebars,
- 2 1/2 " tacho and speedo conversion,
- small fairing and front licence plate,
- 6" K&N air filter (comes under right thigh)
- dismiss pillion seat, relocate voltage regulator to former airbox,
- CatEye Taillight with custom indicators and rear fog light (I'm told the US Highway code won't allow rear foglights?
)
A few things I will rethink:
- Paint scheme: Matt black (as in, SOA)? Shiny black (as in, Prada fashion)? Matt beige (as in, Desert Storm or designer Alviero Martini?)
Here are a few logos:
To go with Matt Black:
To go with Shiny Black:
To go with Beige:
Nice side bags, too !
Incidentally, their keycharm
looks sooo much like the Alitalia logo from the 1950's...
