Very nice indeed! It's great to see a badly neglected bike transformed into a really sweet ride. Ed

Congratulations Tom!
That is a beauty there. I guess you have to keep a box of tissue with it to dry up all the drooling admiring folks nearby. :laugh:

Seriously good work!

Man what a nice bike and talk about some serious elbow grease and a lot of attention to details! The ELR clone looks great, but I am still a fan of a bit more factory paint with less loud graphics (ironic coming from me I know :laugh: ) but all said and done, that engine area is one of the most gorgeous and clean that I have seen in a while! I love the satin with the key polished accents without it being "Blingy" or having too many "farkles" on it, superbly done!!! Great bike and thank you for sharing, terrific choice for BOTM Dave nice job B) *thumbs up!*

Thanks,
Brett

I aim to please Irish ;)
I first met Harm on the Rally and his 550 suck with me as a real nice example of how everyone of us wants a project to turn out.
NICE JOB TOM !!!!!

Thanks for all the kind words you have said. I really like this bike. I plan on doing some more to it after I get my kawasaki S2 350 triple done.
