Yeah I know what he meant. For now it's exactly what I want. Granted in the long run I have different plans, but yes I love it! I was just wondering what everyone else's opinion on it is. Not that I would change it because of what others think.

I don't hate it. I don't love it. I can appreciate always you are doing for now. Keep it up.

don't trow away those old bulky gauges ,there is enough demand for the gauge plate and cups with foam rings!

Looks great! I really like it. Did you save enough to do the front fender? I think the seat looks really good with it, if you were keeping this long term I'd vote to have the seat recovered in white, but not sure if that'd go with your long term plans. The stickers might be around a little longer than you planned once you realize how long it's gonna take you to peel each one of those off! .

The gauge looks good on there. Were you planning on using XB lights and a flyscreen, or are you sticking with the round headlight? I can't remember if you already mentioned that one or not.

I'm keeping the stock gauges in a box lol or is someone wanted to buy them I would probably sell them. I still haven't decided on the wind screen I have a weird street fighter headlight I was thinking about using and just not running a wind screen. I haven't quite decided though and I still need a front fender.

Highwaydirtbikes.com makes some pretty cool billet mounts and top triples for the vapor and they do have one that fits the xb triple here is an example

That definitely looks good with the new mount. Does it include risers for the handlebars? I notice the bar clamp bolts are parallel instead of angled like the normal bar clamps. Curious how that all fits on there.

That makes more sense. I saw the gold bars and garage floor and didn't even question it. Didn't notice the frame tube with the oil plug in it.
