My bike finally seems to be seeing the light. I woke up to some snow on the ground today but the forecast for Saturday looks good. I know it's only March but I really wanna get out and ride this thing now. I still have a few things to do before this bike is fully operational. I left my fender down at Lethbridge HD and Im hoping I can get my bike down there on Saturday to get all wired up. I have no rear signal lights and no brake lights. Once the rear end is all wired then I can put my new fender on and get it out on the street. I just ordered a new white biltwell diamond spring seat as well. The seat won't be in for a few weeks but once it's on that should be the final touch that I need to set the bike off.

Greenster
It's been over a week since my last post, I haven't had anything interesting or significant occur with my bike until yesterday. I sent it away last week for paint to Jeff and Kevin Fujita at Kustom Auto Body in Coaldale, AB. As I was out driving around yesterday morning I thought I would call them and check how things were coming. To my surprise they were finished already. I didn't expect them to be finished so quickly. When I arrived at their shop I was nervous to see how the paint turned out, my nerves were smashed when I saw this paint job. It was amazing. And to think that I was going to paint my bike gloss black. The green paint popped and the metalflake was glittering like an old bowling ball. The white decals also created a nice contrast with the green and they go along good with the other white hightlights on my bike such as my exhaust and the whitewalls. I put the tins back on my bike asap and I had to do some last minute grinding to get my strut covers back on my bike as well.
