Looks like it's going 80 mph standing still.

I've never cared much for flames, but that looks really good! Great work!!

Not certain mind you but I think that fan on yonder wall is 'sposed to be on the ceiling. What kind of fire extinguisher is needed for a fire like that? A big one I bet. Looks great!

thank you guys for the comments this thing has been a fun project over the past 3 years. I still have some things to do but should be riding in a month (luckily I have the other bike to ride)

checklist......

upholster seat and backrest
chrome rear mag and install tire
assemble rear brake and bleed
bleed clutch
make adapter plate for stereo to center in console
install stereo speakers and amp
install Led lighting
install headlight and turn signals
install speedo
install fresh air vents and tubes

I am sure there is something that I am forgetting

I would paint some flames on the rear rack, then put it in the closet. Sharp looking.

at the time I had planned on putting armrest and speakers on the rear trunk so you really would not see much but may still do that. as far as closet "I Don't Think So" she is going to be a rider and I will stand tall in the seat cause I am very proud of this

 

[joedrum]

ill give free room and food if come to my place and do hooch LOL ...wonderful skills

I better clarify, and this opinion only. I meant just the trunk part in the closet because I think the 1200 with just bags looks very sharp. I didn't mean the bike or the flames. Yours looks great. I also know the passengers prefer the trunk for a backrest, and if you take trips, there's a lot of room in them. Thanks for sharing. It wasn't meant as a "flame."

no that's fine brother I am waiting on the rear wheel to come back from chrome so I can get my measurement on just how low I can drop the ass down if I can go as low as I want I will leave trunk off and just run the bags I am with you, I think the 1200 looks better without the trunk
