It is really starting to come together.  I bought some cool decals for the side covers from Carpy and he also is getting me true British clubman bars.  I decided to forgo the drag bars.  I will sell them for a good price.  I am still looking for a cafe' seat.  Any ideas, help, sources?

thanks,
Sparty

Yeah, and those pin stripes are real paint.  My painter did a nice job for FREE.  It looks even better in the sun, but today it is raining on my parade.  My seat is the only eye sore at this point.

Thanks for the tumbs up, I was a little sketchy on the color, I did like the look in black, but this says cafe' racer a bit more.

No, I wish it was a Don job, but I could pass up a free spray.  the color is a HD paint, it is called pewter denim.  It is a low gloss metallic.
