i love the look of black rims and hubs with steel spokes. i just got mine done the other day, still have to true them. i also went with a 21" front and 18" rear on stock heritage hubs.

Checking in...

I've been working on the motor for the last few weeks, but After a new gasket kit gets here this weekend I think I'll be ready to button her back up and start putting everything back into the frame. =)

After that I'll start the wiring =(.....

 

[I am Carbon]

rush, I wish I had thought to use gator for my seat. i will for recover someday.

Well my wiring harness is finished.
time to tear her back down to get ready for paint!

 

[Rush2112]

My parents just got back from wintering in FLA today i wish i would have thought of it also and had em get me a peace....
Huuuummmm Gator is sounding better and better......
I got some really good tomatoes and oranges though!

 

[Inevitable]

Can I ask why gator? Is it just an aesthetic thing? or is it a functionality thing?

Looks good! A question though, how does the lower rear case mount work? Do you fab your own?

 

[livingdeadmc]

Looks awesome! I did some work on mine as well...stuff came back from the powder coater, got my wheel covers on, and everything back together as a roller...I just need to drop the motor in and wire it up!

Thanks,they designed it that way.Everyone has there opinion but i think 4 motor mounts is plenty.Some of these guys have fabbed up the 5th mount.
