Very sharp bike. Did you get those crips off of e-bay? Do you like them?

Bike is quite sweet, Smiddy my good man. Stay out of Compton with all that redness because the Crips will mistake you for a Blood and shoot you right off your saddle.

Thanks Bob, I guess it's just like if I had your bike the rims would be black, I still think it's bad ass. I thought the chain would be very original, ek zvx, one of the strongest chains made.
The grips did come from ebay, I love 'em. If anyone gets some, they fit kinda loose. Get the grip glue or use spray adhesive, and wrap a rag around them real tight while they set up. THEY DO NOT BUDGE. Color is off a lil, very lil, but what grips come in passion red? Slightly larger circumference than stock, which I like. The gel cuts the vibes to a minimum.
The pipes are ceramic turbo black, the can is powder coated, the shifter is painted. What do you mean by details? What did I do to mount it?
Never been out to Cali. Don't plan on going there. Never say never, Thanks for the heads up.
Thanks for the comments fellas, just took my time with it.

I got a red chain the other day too....after I opened the box, I knew I didn't like it. Oh well.
Beautiful bike. I'll post up when I get my parts installed.

The black Vortex sprocket comes from Vortex like that. They are hard coated and are suposed to last 20% or 30% longer than without. The cost is just a tad more like that. I had one on my last bike.

lietoome, I didn't think it was all that until I cleaned it, and put it on the bike. That did it for me.
CrotchRocket, I got it from schnitz, same price as the regular one. They didn't have it in stock, still had it in a week. The pipes are a semi- gloss turbo black ceramic, the can is a semi- gloss powder coat black. I don't remember the code by Dupont. They even had it with the micro flake like the frame (powder coaters). Both are here locally. $125 for the pipes, I took allot of stuff to the powder coaters, so I wouldn't know what it would be for just the can.
Thanks again fellas.
