Thanks everyone for the great feedback. I fel like I should tell you guys that this is my first build, and I actually started building it before I had ever ridden a motorcycle. I have learned a whole lot in the past 2 years. I now own 3 bikes and I am building 2 others for friends.


USN20- I have always liked the factory stripes and seriously considered the silver/black stripe, but I want to do this a little more race/custom to go with the seat.
Gerhed- shocks are the Boge ones from the guy on ebay. Best $50 bucks that Ive spent on this bike.

       Hey justfours,  Sounds like you got those shocks from Tim. I picked up a couple a pairs of them myself, for my 2 550K projects.

                                                 Later on, Bill :) ;)

Well, I was bored and curious about an idea I had for a paint scheme.  And, well... you did ask for ideas...
I couldn't figure a way to repost with the same resolution.  Pardon the poor quality...
