    Great looking bike ! You think you have enough sheet metal for that thing? I know... Use the dull for winter and the shinny for summer when you want to be a pretty boy. [​IMG]

    Shine it as much as you can for as long as it's got paint and alloy that will shine.

    If the rest of the bike will be restored (clean and shiny), then it will look great. Don't mix and match, though. That would look dumpy. Personally, I like dirty version. [​IMG] Sweet bike.

    hey, that thing looks like it's got a jockey shifter...
    if that's the case, it's kool no matter what the tins look like! [​IMG]
    what's with those wheel barrow handlebars, perhaps a set of apehangers would do it some good. IMHO.

  8. I drove mine Jocky shift for one season then switched to the tank shift, best move I made! Since you asked, I don't much like that shiny front fender......Still a nice ride.
    Any useful info in that book I sent ya?

    This week, the BCC (Bay City Choppers) gang builds their theme bike for next year's Cherry Festival over in Traverse City...will the crew get it done in time...or will the pressure send them into the penalty box??

    Tune in to this week's episode of "Another Chopper" to find out!!! [​IMG]

    Hatch,

    My vote is for the existing paint. Fortunately, it's just a matter of bolting and unbolting if you want to switch back.

    You didn't fool me, that's fatboy stuff. I like your seat choice better than that big ass buddy seat.
    Is that o.d. green showing through the red? You can't cover that up! Classic!
