    Installed my baron's exhaust system and buttoned up my catch can.  Tomorrow I will be installing my swingarm covers and then cleaning the bike real good for some nice pics.

      Rode it today with my wife, my project superintendent and his wife to the 4th Anniversary Celebration at Art In Motion in Kissimmee Fl. They build custom bikes of all kinds. They fed us and then brought out some hot models. The owner asked me to bring the SNOTHOG around back for some photo shoots with them so here is a few of the shots of one of the gals.  The others are in my gallery at this link.   https://www.roadstarraider.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=myimages;u=420

      hey man what is that box by the gear shifter with 113 on it ?

      Tried to put the memphis batwing on but wrong brackets. Have to figure out which ones will work.

      Painted the chrome headlight cover satin black.  Still have to do the tank gauge chrome piece and rear fender struts.  But the weather is too nice in DFW right now not to go riding....so I'm strapping on my chaps and heading out!   O8O

      I'm hoping to get the wheels powder coated, a nitrous system, black ISO grips, and paint the handle bars and call it good. :)
