Whatever happened with this build and ZSteele?  

I always felt like he was getting in too deep with all of the mods he was doing but I liked his gusto.  (Too many mods at once is a recipe for trouble if you aren't experienced with said mods.)

I know his WiFi got blocked but he was active for several months after.

Life happened! Moved away from the city, changed jobs, had a baby. All sorts of hijinks!

Currently the bike is torn down and I'm going to start from scratch with the seatpan, seat, electronics tray, etc. All of my electronics and wiring we're stable contrary to popular opinion so I won't be changing anything there, but I'll likely have to rewire it for cable management purposes. The battery and regrec will get a new box below the carb. This will allow me to take things leaner and cleaner with the brains under the seat.

I'm looking at grabbing a new tank as well, something with better lines that I can use when I remake the hump. Likely I'll ditch the fuel gauge and maybe repurpose it with my wife's savage.

I still dig an alternate route for the pipe but I think pie cut welding one myself is out of the question. Looking into sand bending but I'll likely tackle that last.

I still want a 3/4 fairing, but I'd rather have a running bike 🥲

Updates to come in time

That all sounds great!  Keep us updated as you can (with pics!).  Congrats on the new family.
