Default All back together, GOLDEN NIGHT! Whadaya think?
Well after a couple of months on the lift, ton o dough, and lots of time its all back together and Im lovin it. I put about 40 miles on it tonight and had no problems. I had it torn down pretty good and got it all back together right. God I love that 60 dollar manuall!!!! Here are some pics and a link to more pics. I took everyones suggestions on keeping the solo vs that 883r seat. I dont plan on keeping these pipes (they are $650 Martin Bros Blunts and I had them hi temp wrinkle black coated, if anyone wants them first 250 takes them) They cover up too much of my custom work and I dont really think they go with the look of MY bike??? Of course there is a ton more to be done but this is where Im at soo far











Photobucket album with more pics... http://s274.photobucket.com/albums/jj250/jamnjc3/


I have something I am working on for the front end but im not finished yet, 2 more weeks maybee........ I look foreward to the coments!! Thanks Jamnjc3

Nice overall. Lean and mean. I personally hate the exhaust, but that's simply a matter of taste.

The gold on black is a nice contrast vs. the typical chrome on black.

I agree. Looks awesome except for the pipes, but you said they aren't going to stay. What exhaust are you going to get next?

Looks great! I like the tool box (at least that's what I presume it is) on the belt guard. I like the headlamp a lot (might look better with clear turn signal lens/amber bulbs).

How loud is that exhaust? Is there any sort of baffle in there?
