Did this here bike for a friend. I dig it although there are a few things I would have done a bit differently. But it looks killer and has a great stance. The knobbys are gonna kick his ass....wonder how long before they are changed out? Needless to say, a few things need to be buttoned up....throttle, clutch and headlight. But it is nearly complete.

Duane....your boy took the seat and had it dyed black.....nothing I could do to convince him otherwise, but I guess it is his money and his seat so if he wants to ruin it. The detail work is still there but he wanted a more subtle look.........can't always save people from themselves.

I didn't know a retard could get a mc license. Do me a favor and cut the fist stamp right out of the front of that thing. Right after you kick him in the balls hard enough to lift him off the ground. :) - Duane
I know.....he deserves it!

I'm curious to know what the seat looked like before the dye job...

oh shit, he dyed ALL of it black?!!! I think there is enough gold/brass accents on the bike that the seat would have looked perfect the way it was.

nice job on the bike and the pre-dyed seat if I didn't mention it before.

mitch
You are correct sir!

Well, that's kind of a drag. I agree that it would have looked fuckin killer with those accents. Then again, it ain't my bike!
