My rooster tail maker.

The custom metal work is really great looking. A little different which is what I like about it. Those bars won't work for me, but that's just a small personal preference. Overall this bike rocks. Like those pipes (LOUD!!). The holster is cute. 
As a far as ~roost~ goes ... absolutely zero issue for me and the rest of us that live out here .....
Oh, look! A turn!!
We get something like two inches of rainfall per year. |

Exactly. It's a speedway bike on steroids (if the engine was built right).
That picture is giving me ideas. Yeah, dumb ass ideas, but... It's puttin a smile on my face right now.
In your next post you show a holster and I like that too of course, BUT, I would put it on the left. Better to shoot left handed than let go of the throttle.
So, combining those two ideas with 120 HP approximately. My Roadster may go in that direction. I think the hard tail is do-able because at my age I'm not riding more than a tank anyway. I can leave suspension on the other sporty for when the wife comes along. |

We get around 60 to 80 inches of rainfall per year, depending on tropical storms and hurricanes. It averages raining a measurable amount 100 days out of the year.
Which might kind of explain why I don't care for chopped fenders.
I like the look, just not wearing the water and mud.

Maybe that's why Indians had the throttle on the left?
