    looks great! I like the swing arm, its not too long, just enough to make it a little different and help keep the front down. I hate the ones that stretch it like 2 feet though...

    realy is lookin good


    Ya the ones I've worked on usually get wrecked before something goes wrong cause people don't realize they're rocket ships. Is the frame polished or chromed? Wheels powder coated or painted?

    I hate the paint job, all though the work may be top notch ? I can't tell. You ruined the suspension with the stretch also....

    the suspension is just fine i didnt ruin it with the stretch it handles just like it did before and has no effect on it and like i told other dude to each there own you may hate the paint job but others may

    the frame is polished and the wheels are powder coated im thinking of pulling the bike back apart this winter after this season and sending all the polish to chip at simmons motor works and have it all chromed and getting the wheels chromed

    what is going on in here with all the stretch haters? hell it don't take much to put it back to stock with extentions, thats if he wanted. i think it looks good. and the time it takes to layout a piant job like that is crazy. did you use a negitive sticker or tape it by hand?

    the only thing i think i'd change is lowering it just a little so the swing arm does not look at so much of an angle. but that depends on how you ride too. good job on it. and reps for doing your own thing

    yea i thought about lowering it a little more but i didnt want the fairings own the ground and busting the bottoms of the fairings up and i actually hand laid the flames and did a negative tape before the airbrushing

    reps for you man

    Looks good dude! I'm thinking about getting extensions to see if I like it on mine.

    It lowered and the wheels polished or chrome would be sick! Good job on the work put in it.
