That flat military green looks great, I have a spare tank and tins, and have been looking for ideas.

Good Job, please give me the low down on the baggage and mounting. I have used the left side of my bikes passenger bolts to mount my fork/tool bag. I have been looking for a non conventional bag.
Ride like you mean it.

Thanks guys for your comments!
As for the buggage amglo,i used the left one genuine bag than came with the bike.As for the mount i used the original mount as well but turn it upside down.One screw goes to the shock and the other with a bended piece of metal goes to the bolt that holds the brake hose on the swingarm.So that the bag moves with the swingarm.The thing is that i have to tighten the bolts every once in while but i really like the look.

Nice! Zapatistas artwork notwithstanding.  I see the chrome cover for the 'beaut' of a casting job... Very Scrambler'est. yet not. Looks like a nice day in Athens.

Corporal Varmax, we have some vital papers that need to be taken to the front lines immediately! Do you have enough petrol in your tank to get to El Alamein? (...sorry, couldn't resist...must be watchin' way too many old war movies on TCM lately)  GREAT lookin' bike ya have there, Michael. LOVE what you've done with her!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Var man, that is a sweet lookin' lil scoot. Like everything one else I think you nailed it with that paint and the mounting of the bag is sick. Well done.
