Hughlysses- I will put a breakdown up on the badweb once I have it finished, I already know that I could have bought a leftover 08 cheaper though lol

Bishop- I bought the bike on December 27 (Merry Christmas to me) and I drove down to TX the next day to get it. I have been working on it in my spare time since then. Actual manhours are really close to 100 hours I dont really like to keep track or them because it gets sort of depressing that I could have been out riding and not wrenching lol.

Mluds- Thanks for stopping by last night and swapping those wheels. Once my bike is up and running we will have to go for a ride.

Maybe so, but I'm sure that wouldn't give near the satisfaction as a ChrisRogers3XB12R does!

Chris, Awesome job! It's never about the hours...working on your own motorbikes is good for the soul.

Here we go guys, some more photos so you can get a better idea of the bike. Nothing has seemed to work out for me the last 24-48 hours so the bike is no where near where I hoped it would be but here ya go....





Yes that is a powdercoated fairing bracket and powdercoated upper and lower clamps.
