Nice job, especially the black forks.

The turn outs were $3 at Lowes, couple peices of 2 1/2 radiator hose and 4 stainless hose clamps, cheap mod for a what i think is a pretty cool look and you can change it back in 2 mins. The spocket cover is stock 07. Yea man give me a heads up when you get back

Ya see that dave, that battery mod aint that hard to do at all. Its looking sharp....and usually the stock sprocket cover looks a bit bulky but those new ones blend in very nice.

Yea man it wasnt that hard at all...Thought i was going to have to go to the spocket cover like you (Brokenfixed) have, might be able to get away with this one though. All the leather came from Bruisers custom out in Cali. www.bruisercustomcycle.comThanks for the props

Dude, it looks great!!!!
Probably one of the coolest Speedy's on the site. My personal taste is longer pipes and a larger rear fender, but I love your attention to detail....the black forks, black front fender mount, black on the front discs, black risers, 180's on the K&N's, black sprocket, battery box, black mirrors...just the right mix of brown, black, & chrome.
Tastefully done!
