   I know I've been posting up a storm in the; "What did you just buy..." thread without many pics, so I figure I'll make a thread. She's still not in rideable condition, gotta get my headlight and speedo mounted, some tuning to sort through, and little things here and there.

My headlight mock up...



My penis tail light mod;





My Sargent seat...(love this)


My Ducabike gas cap..



view from the left



my Rizoma rearsets..



The penis mod with my new seat...



Sprocket cover...have not fitted my new slave cylinder yet :(



Tough to get a good pic of this, but it was a shitload of work, this filter did not fit I had to dremel it out, fit a grommet inside, squeeze the DP ergal breather on, then bust my knuckles getting it in...wish it was more visible for all my trouble because it looks awesome






Still to come are my new IMA triples and, LSL Carbon Fat Bar, new speedometer, and a re-do of my front fork insides.

One of the best mods performance and appearance wise was, oddly enough the $50 stainless steel suspension risers I bought from a forum member here. The bike dives into corners like never before, and the "stance" is so much sexier from the left on the kickstand.

Hey ML; I still want you to make those "sleeves" for me. I'm extremely nervous about how it's done at the moment...really didn't want to bug you for such a small time part is all.

Wow you have some incredible things going on going with this bike.  Nice job and thanks for sharing.

Don't take this the wrong way but have you considered getting some clip-ons, or maybe flipping the handlebars?  The handlebars and risers don't really flow with the rest of your theme, especially with the clocks missing.

Its cool. As long as I can plan for it they're cake to make. Just give me a heads up when you're ready to rock.

Nah, no offense at all. I do have clip ons...not sure if they're for me or not. I'm going with a set of "low" Carbon Fat Bars, I think they will look much, much better. The no dash thing is temporary till I get this mounted:

Thanks for the feedback. Ya know...that penis mod was one of the hardest...and after going to great lengths dicking around with getting it mounted I'm not even sure I dig the looks of it. :(

The hose running over the top of your breather doesn't look healthy? I am actually digging the bars on your bike.

Great to "meet" you and your bike.  Seems like you're well on your way to having a pretty good looking bike there.  Will be keeping up with your bike...especially that headlight!!

That dash looks sick!  Keep us posted on your progress.  I am curious to see how hard it is to get that thing wired up.

Bike looks great!   [thumbsup]  What speedometer did you go with?  I was debating changing mine when I change my light and put my clip ons on.  Looking forward to seeing it finished!

How do those SS risers work for the rear suspension? Just unscrew the two ends of that "U-Bracket", insert the risers, and screw them back in?
