Looking down at it from the driver's it looks like it is lopsided to the right at the bottom. Is it, or is the stripe or maybe the seat is crooked. Nice tin work and the paint is nice. Great job just the same.

I like the look of the Standard/Tourer tach and spedo inside the IS fairing.

I live in Clairemont a suburb of San Diego, the tank now holds 10.5 gal, I don't know what the bike weighs, about 21 lbs more than it use to. the stripe looks like it is crooked but the seat wasn't latched. I did reuse the tourer tack and speedo and a motosens volt and fuel gauge, and it does have the 4 degree triple trees, from darel and his shock bushings also, they really change the way the bike handles at low speed. For the better.

Nice job!
I never did like the I/S "pods" but I like the I/S fairing without all the electronic crap. I am always jealous of the riding range of my buddies that have an I/S.
Now you have the best of both!  cooldude

A little curious about the handlebars, they seem like there is more rise to them.  They're quite a ways above the outer section of the fairing, are they stock bars?
