Thought I'd do a little mucking about with the bike while I was home on R&R - removed my freak kit, chopped up the battery tray a bit and fabbed a bracket to relocate it, and left all the side covers off. Gives a bit of an old-school look, and yes I got the idea off here
Also gave my dash a couple coats of matte black - got really tired of being blinded by the Texas sun off the chrome in front of my face, wasn't sure how it would turn out but it looks pretty good. Here's a couple pics:
