Looking great. I noticed your shocks look a little taller. Do you mind me asking what length you went with? The stockers on mine don't give it much clearance.
Little update. I managed to do some final touches to cleaning up the subframe and moving the rear fender forward just enough. Oh and I painted the tank blue. 8)
My SR250 had similar tank problems. I JB welded it up and painted it for the moment but have been looking at new tanks for a while now. I have found a few, and am considering some on Ebay out of China. Here is one in particular that I think could work. This one in particular does not have...
This shorty muffler may look the part but it was just too loud for my liking. I spent a little more for this 27 inch Emgo. Its long. It lost some cool but is tolerable again.
Sounds like a better paint. The only experience I have with spray paint is the cheap stuff that comes off the first time it gets washed. This oil base paint I used is really just something quick. I had my eye on a tank with some near perfect dimensions on ebay. I just haven't pulled the...
I use an online company for my business and had some Exciter decals made. I originally had these made for the tank but like the emblems better. Here they are on the fender. Ill keep them there a while and see if they grow on me.

After making another repair to the tank it was in need of a fresh coat. I figured why not add a bit of green since I had some. I sanded some of the emblems to show some nice looking brass under the layer of chrome. Stuck on what to do next.
Tonight I trimmed up some of the rear frame cleaning it up a bit. The rear fender is now forward at least 2 inches as well. I had to find a way to attach the seat which was quite a challenge. I ended up pulling back the seat cover and installing a bolt through the pan towards the rear. Then...
