exhaust is getting shipped out to get chopped. passenger pegs are going to have an interesting special treatment as well :)
those levers still look like they'd stab you if there was a crash. powdercoating looks good though
Dont worry about it I'm getting rid of those levers and getting these anyway...

Took the day off to put all of the parts are back on the bike. The frame and engine/clutch covers have been washed and painted flat black. Frame sliders and swingarm spools/sliders are installed.
The exhaust has been cut down 2 inches (I HATE exhausts that stick out like 10 inches past the tail)oh and I love the sound of the LV exhausts, well worth the money for the deep bass sound.

preview of the paint job.
pics do it NO justice whatsoever. Looks gorgeous in the sun and varies from a metallic grey to a nice shade of blue, depending on how the sun hits it.

nice color, but i'd rather have the car :)
I've always loved the signals in the ducati mirrors... so naturally.....
http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/1688/img2948l.jpg
they will be painted the color of the bike as well.
here are some teaser pics.
my solo cowl fell off at highway speed so there's no FULL photoshoot until it gets fixed
I painted my engine cover wrinkle black.
I also painted the frame. looks sooooo much better

looks good man!! i like the color
torn down...i couldnt find any with the motor removed, or the swing arm. the only parts not seperated during this engine swap/general upgrade was the forks from the frame.
motor, wheels, swingarm, harnesses, everything was swapped. in a storage unit with timed lighting that always shut off at the worst times, in the dead of winter.
nice work. keep it upright so you don't scratch anything!
