Yes!  Nicely done.  Triple-disk setup, and aftermarket swingarm.  Cool!

Thank you! It is my bike. There is nothing in right cover.  Bike is mixed: GL 1000 front end, K7 cylinder head, fastroad cam, 40 DCOE webers,  I think bike is fun to drive.

There is no second oil tank - it is just a cover . . . .
