Anybody got an idea for mirrors? I'm having problems deciding what I want.

Maybe one small mirror mounted below left handgrip.
I used the stock mirror and cut it down to half the length.

It is my style and I like it. You guys ever notice how easy it to make these bikes look old school by removing all the fenders, chrome and lights. Keep up the great work. You will have to beat them off with a stick when you are done.

Looking good, Strick. Check out this clamp-on mirror. Should look good under your left grip. J&P - Clamp-on Billet Mirror

Looks good, clean cut getting rid of those fender rails. Did you paint, or powder coat the wheels? Keep pics coming.

I like the look you are heading towards. Where did you get the apes (brand/model)? What cables did you use? Did you have stock wheels powdercoated or buy new ones?

The bars are mcguires? or something like that. They have a 12 inch rise. I got them off ebay for $12. I sent my clutch cable to Barnett's tool and engineering. The brake cable from ma's. I had the wheels powdercoated. Hopefully I'll get the tank and fenders back from the painter this week. The weather has been too good down here.

Strick looks great brother, but watch out for that seat on long rides!

I hate to tell you this, but if you ride through a puddle your back might get wet.  Beyond that...

Stock triple trees, yes. The rear fender isn't finished yet. I'm supposed to get it sometime next week.

That is a very sharp looking bike! Can't wait to see what the rear fender will look like.
How does it ride with those handle bars?
