Looks awesome, man. Really unique.

I was looking for that fairing. I know you said it was an old interceptor. Do you recall the year?

 

[jdizon]

Thanks man! You mean headlight fairing or the lower cowl I had in the previous mockups? The lower cowl came from a 85 Honda Interceptor and the headlight fairing is a standard Harley vrod/nightrod fairing.
