Nice, I miss having a garage.  Maybe the mods will toss this into the bikes and babes thread?

Not sure what's cooler; having a wife that will pose for that picture, or a wife that will let you keep your bike in the living room!

Forgive me if you've already been asked a million times (I'm new) but is your seat/battery box a custom-fab or did you buy it? I'm guessing the former since I want the same kind of setup and nothing I want to do is ever as simple as clicking 'add to cart'.
Also, just curious, how long did it take you to rewire everything?

hand made by me and the wiring just took some extending from the starter motor side but the rest reached the rear easily. i used a smaller battery from varta and significantly reduced the size of the 'brain' bracket. i used the original battery tray and cut it down and rewelded it to the frame.

there are some photos here:


(i can't believe i put a picture of booty up and get questions about battery trays! )  ;)
