Pretty neat lookin' !!! Saw the Vans and DC decals... looked around for an Osiris decal too! But didn't see one :icon_sad: haha just cuz their NYC 83 hightop with sherpa lining is my riding shoe of choice ;)

What ya got planned for pegs?

Did ya do anything different with the gauges? Looks like something might be different but can't totally tell from the pic.

I'd love to know more details :cheers:

Interesting exhaust--is it a kind of straight pipe or is there a muffler in there? How does the bike run and sound?

Thank you, more pics added 8) mucho appreciated

The exhaust is a universal short muffler slip-on wrapped in black and red exhaust, it has a growling sound to it, I'll have to upload a youtube video and fire it up.  The pod filters help, rejetted and with all the weight off and premium gas 94( I do notice a precise   difference in throttle response, I do believe in seafoam as well) it runs great.

Thanks! Osiris would be a great decal of choice :cheers:
I was going for a bit of a retro decal look, have a few Burtons on it too haha.  I have white and silver handle grips and bar end mirrors, black... even though I did order a set of white ones that might look really good 8)
The pegs that are coming in are a pair to the handle grips, white and silver pegs, spring loaded.
The seat Id like to redo, maybe do a two tone. Black on the driver seat and white on the passenger seat (to match the ass end) with some sort of transfer strip .. I may get that professionally done depending on the price though.  I might attempt it myself...  :icon_eek:
I also have 4 front headlights that one pair has 2 LED lights in the back of the head light which actually lights up the gas tank it looks really good at night I should take a video

Nice looking bike, side note if you DL the Tapatalk app on your phone it allows you to post pictures on the actual post instead of posting links.
