I got it back together and most of the painting done. I still need to paint the headlight bucket, gauges, and a couple other litthe things. im also finishing up wiringharness 3.0 this will be the final one just need to get one or two more things wired in and clean up (tuck away) the harness. decided to i liked the more clean look of no turn signals and most people dont see them or pay attention to them so i decided to go with out them and use hand signals (florida = no dot on personal vehicles). so i used a dirtbike lever for the clutch to get rid of all the stuff on the left handle. I also just got in a naked throtle control and new throtle cables from dime city to clean up the right side (not installed yet). still have a small oil leak from the tach cable at the motor so i need to replace that o-ring.
sure there are a couple other little things im forgeting but i plan to do an actual photo shoot (with model :]) when done.

on a lighter note i have bid riding it probably the most comfortable motor cycle i have even riden. i love the way it seats you and for a hard tail ive done a full tank ride with no stopping and still been very comfortable. i also love the way it sounds, the looks i get, and people trying to figure out what it is.
