it actually looks ok, the light blue, but the painter didnt put enough clear on it, and it shows. so i figured id just let my father have at it to see what he come up with. ---

yeah shield is coming off, the only thing i dont like about the paint is the painter skimped on the clear way too much, and it shows big time, but since my father can do a custom job for me free, i might experment. Also im taking off the pipes and getting 2 of them instead of the 2 into 1. They sound awesome but i like the 2 instead. ---

1. For those of you who have riden with a windshield… you know how much more comfortable it is. 2. For those of you who have ever seen a bike w/o a windshield you know how much better it looks. Keep the windshield in your garage… makes it easier on long cruises.
