    Absolutely awesome. Love the seat. And the carbon fiber. And the brakes. And the... well you get the idea.

                Great album thanks for sharing.
                Old bikes look so good with a tasteful resto mod job.
                Nice touches everywhere.
                Can you point me in the right direction to your air filter serup? I'd like to try that instead of pods.
                Thanks for sharing.

                  So many nice bits that fit well together. Nice work!
                  I would like to see a pic leaning on the side stand. Just a different stance.

                          It rides well, still need to dial in the suspension. Suprisingly the body positioning is right in the middle of adjustability, so i lucked out in that respect. I still have a fender to put on. Just deciding on how to finish it.... so i guess (technically )the bike isn't finished. (Whomp whomp)

                          Of course I've only been able to ride it up and down the road in front of the shop, so no real road riding experiments as of yet. Id like to connect with GSR members in NY to see if there are any co-op shop situations, to figure out what to do with my shop stuffs. Store here, store there, sell off...... ill figure it out. If i cannot sell "black beauty" in TX, then i suppose im bringing it to the city with me... and i dont think i could store it in my tiny apt. without daily complaints from the gf.

                              Well I made it to NYC ok. Got a storage unit in the Bronx (@ $257/mo !) For all my shop stuff and bikes. It was the only place that agreed to store them... anyone in new york need a shop partner? Hahaaha!
