That does look good. I don't think I would have done the indents in the tank, but it looks cool nonetheless. Really dig the rear fender.

Glad you like it. That's my bike. Ryzart is the man who did the paint. I am putting her all back together today. If you are looking for a paint job I would contact this guy before he realizes how good he really is. The signature on the tank was my idea. He is really a humble guy and felt wierd about doing it but I think it just pops. I'll post some proper pics later.

Thats terrific, thought I'd never get to see the tins mounted. Ryzart is a master. I have a couple of his posters in my garage. Did you chose the color scheme or let it up to him? Love the inset gears. Maybe one day I'll let him do my bike in that style. Hope I didn't blow up your intro by posting the pix. More Ryzart: http://www.ryzart.com/PRINTS_4_SALE.html#3 Quote:

We talked about some color schemes that included black and copper. I scrounged for copper for over a year to get some extra bread for the bike so I thought it only fitting to go with that color. Funny thing is that it is really rootbeer over gold flake. He said he had these gear stencils that he had been dying to use so I told him to go for it. I wont lie. I was nervous but I trusted he could pull it off and I think he did. I going to take some decent pics now and I'll post them tonite.

I'd trust him to just do what he feels as well, his taste mimics mine with tons more imagination. Only issue is now you have the rootbeer brown so I couldn't copy..<g>. Like I said, I love that scheme. My first bike was rootbeer brown metallic.

Man, I really like how that looks, I'm sure it will be amazing all assembled. Are you going without tank badges? Front fender?

Yes, I agree with Tommy. Nicely done, nicer pipes will really set it up well.

Wow, that looks incredible. It makes me want to jump right in on my own paint ideas, before I can really afford to do it.  Very Cool!!
