Oh how I love bike porn. Nice job man. Beautiful paint, love the pinstriping. Tasteful and clean. Nice touch with the matching carb hoses too. Wow! Did you do the paint yourself, or pay someone to do it, and if so, how much did it cost?

had the pinstripes done by local pro, then clear coated them.
