Its pretty good. Your color is really neutral, not to dark not to bright. I wouldnt be to worried about those cover you have on, as long as they fit and they stay on, you are good to go, I just think tires with a better tread patter would look good

You should be commended for your efforts. You have brought it back to life! If you are married I'm curious as to what your wife's comments have been throughout this.
A few
What the hell do you want a motorcycle for?
I hope you have enough life insurance.
You're too OLD to be riding a motorcycle.
And my favorite from my 14 yr old son.
You're a middle-aged man on a middle-aged motorcycle!
