Nice,
attention to details makes a sharp bike for sure...
black bolts, stripes, black pipes... sharp!
did you paint the levers, mirrors, subframe, main frame and cluthc cover flat black too?
After seeing your rocket, I would expect no less!
Very clean work!

I never even noticed if the 06-07s were differn't.I never use to miss things like that..Must be alshimers..HA. You can see I cheaped out on pipes but after riding it for the first time yesterday I'm glad I did.. This friggen thing will probably kill me stock..So if I do keep it and can tame my fear I will slowly up the performance Only took it to 6 grand and at 9.5 Iam not sure I can hang on..I never thought you had to join a heath club to own a 14. I do think I have a more friendly torque curve than you high HP guys cause its out running the rocket at low rpm. My busas never had this much down low where they are supposed to be better.

Very nice, the heal plates would look better painted black to.

powder coating them will hold up better, the paint looks rough after you heel against it a few times

Ok, found pic of mikes bike.
I must have been thinking of another, but his does look good too,
I particularly like the flag on his tank more so, I think it would look good on our lower cowls, without the flames underneath it.

Jay,the foot pegs are the Buells and helps my old legs..---Dub I had the same idea,but I had the checkers on one of the Busas and I just hate doing the same thing twice.But I probably will in the fall. Been ridden the last three days and my nerves arent good right now for painting TAHA --Dub I appreciate the detective work to find an example..I didn't mean to be any trouble. Thanks ---Jack . How much snow you got left up there??

I powder coated mine satin black, nearly a perfect match to the other chassis parts. Also added to the factory slots, looks way better IMHO. I'd post pics if I knew how but never figured it out.
