VERY nice!

Now, petition your government to do away with that air dam/wind sail on the back.

That thing is bigger than a Texas billboard.

that is a very nice looking bike man, good job, love the tank on that bike, i would like to see it a little bit lower though, just to give it that stout look, but very nice indeed.

Loving the Bonne tank and the classic paint. I really like the headlight... totally unique. Stunning all around!


Any day on my bike is the best day ever! That would be my custom painted 2007 Speedmaster or my 2002 Daytona 955i also known as my salt racing bike!

The headlight is just the original sprayed black. On a couple of the pictures it looks like the Gauge is sunk in, but its not.

Your Speedmaster is very nicely modified.
I like the blue accents against the black.

Hello Nick,

Is the Thunderbird luggage rack a direct bolt on or did you have to mod it at all?

The bike looks real good!
