What can I say Twitch, you have done an amazing job so far! I'm loving this rebuild. Paint is awesome and the "Honda" emblem is "right on"! Just using the simple color combo of white and black is just perfect. Keep the progress shots coming!

This is coming out better than I expected! Nice work!

BTW, how's your healing been going?

 

[TwItcH]

Good !

Ya and i really haven't spent much money. The majority was in paint and stuff like that. Biggest buy so far was the nitrogen shocks which were only 75$ anyways.

The healing is awesome. Yesterday I went bowling but i guess i wasnt ready yet cause my arm kinda hurts but that just helped me learn my limits for now.

68W (Medic School) has been rescheduled for jan 22nd I am reclassing from MP to Medivac Flight Surgeon

on [/QUOTE] If you don't mind me asking, I'd like to know where you picked those bad boys up? Did you get a killer deal on your seat, or have one sitting around? The best price I've been able to find so far is about 200.00.

The build is coming along great Twitch! Are you going to have the seat as the tail section also like I see in the photo or are you going to cut off the raised hump and have plastic back there?

 

[Hellgate]

This is looking really cool. I like the direction you're going.

Now work faster! :tup:

That should be a fun project, Wishing I still had my '80 XS650 seen a lot of neat things being done with them.
