wow I have not updated this in awhile! the bike is still almost all together. I tore the seat and rear fender off so I could mock up the seat cowl and such. it fits great! I used the airtech streamlining cb75022 long F seat cowl, I also got the matching seat pan and end piece for the tail. I wanted to have a flat back tailpiece with two round tailights. I am happy to say I've made it happen. I have not taken a lot of pictures in this process because of other projects but I am gathering parts and hopefully will strip it down soon for the rebuild
here are the airtech pieces
after lots of mocking up I used marine tex epoxy to glue in the end piece and extra as filler to even out the ends. lots of sanding and cutting later....
this did not allow enough room for the license plate to clear the tire so I did some more cutting and bending and came up with this. even with my brother bouncing on the bike as hard as he could (he weighs 40lb more than me) it would not touch.
ordered some black napoleon bar end mirrors. these things seem very durable and look killerm, I love that you can orient them many different ways too.
I guess I'll just drop these paint pictures off here
kinda skipped over the tedius part of painting, pinstriping, clear coating, wetsanding, and polishing. these make Yolanda look like dirty brown water trash....almost makes me want to re clear, cut and polish her too....almost.
I totally stole TAO's and madscientist's paint scheme......but I was in love. hope you guys enjoy. I love walking by and looking at them
