Look'n good!

Paint the rims and add some gators to the forks and she'll be all black'd out!

Can you give me some info on that windshield? I'm looking for a small one for my 450...

I notice you have a 78 1000, I'm not a big fan of those controls either, I like the slightly newer 82 and up, I have your gauges with some flatter bars, the 82 L controls and more modern mirrors.

I actually like the looks of those bags, and if you bobber your bike, you might not want to hardtail it, unless you've rode a lot of hardtails and don't mind the lack of suspension, otherwise you might regret it. Good luck with your build.

Thanks Man. I put alot of work into this bike. Bought it last year from a old farmer that just keeped it in his barn for years. I had to do alot including a paint job, carb rebuild and all. Had to weld a plate for the new saddle bags I bought to the frame. the bags are Just throw overs But I mad it work. This bike run so smooth in the end. problem now is I bought mac pipes (4-into 1) and having problems installing. But will figure it out

wow thanks! i will start searchin for some of those, as they are close enough they may just plug right in. and i need a new throttle as mine is missing the second cable, so i got one and opened it up and saw that it doesnt seem that i can hook the second pull back up correctly it may be broken, and my clutch perch has a stripped mounting hole and i dont feel like drilling out and installing a longer bolt with nut. rather have a nice one. and ty for the picture i have been going through this thread for hours ...
