    pics of the tank back on my bike after dishing it

    Yeah, it was a wedding card I received. I just taped it to the tank and shot spray paint through it. Worked like a champ

    I made the seat. I just reshaped the stock foam with an electric turkey carving knife, Laid 1/2" foam over it, purchased some water proof suede from a material shop and took it to an auto trim shop and let them re cover it.

    Does your cafe have fork boots on it?? SHOW ME PLEASE!

    And this is how I did it Take some fuel line, cut to length to wrap all the way around tube, insert wire tie, pull tight with pliers, pull boot over fuel line. A water tight fit.

    OK, let me start off by saying that I in no way think anyone should ever have a blue tooth bob in their ear at any time. It looks absolutely retarded. It IS NOT cool. They were created so you could talk on the phone while using your hands for something else. This means if you are in the grocery...

    Shooter CB550 Progress with Pix - 4 December - PODs (and help needed)

    Looks awesome. I am running pods as you know and straight exhaust on the factory spec'd carbs. I haven't re jetted yet but I do read my plugs and all is well. I am not running lean or rich for that matter. I'm sure you will probably see an increase in power and I would imagine it would be...
