SoupD - C'mon, you did more than a paint job;

Swapped front disk from left to right and added EX500 caliper (did the bike even have a caliper on it when you bought it?)
Polished and (probably) rebuilt front forks
Added mirrors
Added steering damper
Added airbox
Polished engine covers
Added grab rail in back
New rear shocks
God knows what else

Excellent work and attention to details. That's what makes it stand out. And, yes, I really like the color.

Thanks for all the nice comments, but its a fair cop.. :lol:
Yup, I did lots to this bike, everything inside & out has been rebuilt or replaced. My original intention of just tidying it up a bit quickly fell by the wayside. ;)
Yes, that is a rattlecan paintjob, but I did use 2 part urethane clear along with 2000 grit paper & polishing compound to get the shine.
A set of Jim's Denco repops (in flat black, of course) are in the bikes future, the stock pipes are all I have for it at the moment

SoupD.
