New Tires, very grippy

As you can see, there are several little details that really set it off nicely such as the swept back helmet fairing, banjo steering wheel, Headlight screens, Leather straps for the back and front bonnet and clamshell, an inverter for power into 110v is tucked away under the dash, the knobs on the dash are the correct look, I even added gas struts to hold the clamshell open.

Also, if you know this issue of your toes keep hitting that stupid bump from the fuel tank tube in the footwell when I'm shifting, and it's so annoying! YES! I fixed that too! no more bump

This is a great cruiser and blasting driver.

I cruise the beaches and blast down the highway about once a month to keep it going.
