Absolutely georgous! Really nice shots. Love everything about it. I have to say that tail is perfect. Do you have a build thread?
 
Thanks for the link. I'll def check that out.
Brother, really nice build! Just perfect! Don't take this the wrong way, but I just keep looking at that back end. Just perfect!
I know that sounds messed up, but I figure I could say that as long as a person wasn't in the picture ;D
 
Really like how the tail forms around the frame rails.

How did you go about getting such a nice looking single stock gauge?

Superbike bars don't look "cafe", but I think they look really cool and unique anyways.

Thanks. The bike was originally built for my wife to be able to ride with me, hence the comfortable bars. It's an amazingly comfortable ride.

The Tach is a 550F unit, mounted with the stock 350F bracket. All you need to do is use the center two holes for mounting and trim the rest. Here's a closeup:

I notice you went to a yamaha style master cylinder, but still only have one front brake. How does it work?

The brake master is actually a Honda unit from a CBR600F3. The unit works wonderfully. I'm running a nice modern braided line to the caliper. The combination is a very positive brake feel compared to stock. The piston in the master is 1/2 inch I believe. Not overkill by any means. The only item to consider was to wire in the brake switch. No biggie.
 
Very, very nice Owned. Both the bike and the photography are nicely done. Love the tank and tail combo. Lots of nice small details over the bike to keep the eye busy. :)
 
Very nice. Love the tail light in the seat. Very similar to what I am planning. Very well executed! Beautiful!
 
I just love the upholstery done on the seat, it is amazing. I wish there were detailed ophotos of the upholstery process.

The actual upholstery was done by Kents Upholstery here in Indianapolis (317) 788-9096. Great people and at a very reasonable price.

I'll post a close up later tonight. The bracket was purchased here: http://www.whaccessories.com/Head%20lights.htm

Note the site lables these as Stainless Steel. They are actually a nice Chrome Steel. I'm a little irritated that the site owner has not corrected his descrip as I pointed this out to him after I purchased. :mad:

The tank has a capacity around 2.2 gal. It's much smaller than what you think. The tunnel is rather high underneath.
