    Very cool. The first thing I noticed were the upside down bars. They really work on that bike.

    Cool package.

      hehe, they arent upside down, i took some scrap material and welded them together so that they would fit best with how i want to sit on this bike if i had the bars to just flip upside down i would but i dont got money to buy them, so why not just make my own i like making mine anyways cause i can make it fit the exact way i want. got some updated pictures, didnt care for the blue wheels, NEW tires made some side peices, and sits a little lower, starting to look pretty good. plus i bought these ^_^ http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=330111470567

        That bike is bitchin'. I love it

        Twin headlights AAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! (Charlie Brown impersonation)

        Hate, hate, hate, vomit, vomit, vomit!!

        j/k - I don't like 'em much cause I like the classic Cafe look more than the modern street fighter. I think it looks good already. I like the side panels.

          update !!!

          update, lowered front end, couldnt afford clipons so i bought my own, welded some mounts to the frame to raise the rearend about an inch, tried the dual headlights, didnt care for them, back to orginal, looking good, got rid of everything but my speedo. so far so good, i killed my right turnsignals when i was welding, hooked the ground on one of the wires, lol so gotta fix left signals, but other than that its really comming together, im going to raise the rearend a little bit more and tune the suspension some more, but i can take it down to the pegs and not have to many worries ! sorry for low quality, took with phone, which was also on low qualitie lol, and if you look closely at the seat, there are bungy cords on it, had my bag strapped to it, so thats what it is if your wondering

              Your bike is fine as long as you keep it out on the farm away from other people who do not want to hear your cries for attention coming from your motorcycle. Open pipes are not responsible, not acceptable, and show a complete lack of respect for everyone you subject to them. They also do a great deal of damage to the efforts of people who are trying to defend the rights of motorcyclists.
              Believe in truth. To abandon fact is to abandon freedom.

              Nature bats last.

                  I would really like to see some photos of your homebrew clip-ons.

                  The bike looks pretty cool so far.

                    I like the nice blue pin stripping on your rims! Great touch!

                                I've been thinking about constructing a rack using my 70amp Wal-mart welder. It would probably look much much worse, though!
