Which was of course followed by…
Hope you all enjoy these.. I know there's not a lot of 'looks' at the bike, just where it's going /been etc…
Here's to wishing EVERYONE a wonderful and safe holiday season!!

Took a year and a half to build - since I was T-boned - just a couple hours every other day due to the disability caused by the accident. Now that she's running and looks good, time to practice riding and getting the bike dirty.Blast Vader lives again! Got Thump?! Just Blasting on the Dark side! EZ
Thank you - I touched every bolt on that bike for the rebuild, a few more than once - lol. Still have the dash gauges to finish and a new rear tire to add. So far though she's been running very well in the break-in rides. EZ
Unfortunately the entire 2014 Speed Week event was cancelled due to rain. No one got on the salt at all but lots of racers brought their cars and bikes out to the sign to get this shot. The background is mostly the reflection of the sky on the water. If you look over my shoulder, you can see a high spot that is dry salt. The little dots are the gas station trailers about three to four miles away.
Has anyone seen a paint job like this? The detail is awesome and it looks great. I was wondering if it is some special factory paint option or a custom paint job. The bike is a 2001 X-1.
@ EZ - lol. After trying for 3 hours to load some pics I realized I'm not tech savvy enough to pull it off. bummer cuz I would like some opinions on this paint job. I can try again after work today.
