Not back on the road yet but close she is at my local shop now having the carbs setup correctly and he is giving my work a once over being that this is my first time working on or owning a motorcycle. I will post some final pics when I have them.  

Also to this forum in general there have been more than few members who problay don't even remember answering my questions there have been times where I could not have paid for better advice during this build. THANK YA'LL.

One more thing. I would have been completely unable to do this without my DAD who is the reason for me riding a monster in the first place. Thanks pops. 

Now that my cheeseyness is out the way what do ya'll think?

You wouldn't believe how perfectly that barrel worked out. I laughed at it myself but it really was just right.
