Here it is!
It's far from perfect, it has some minor cosmetics that I will be changing when the parts get here, misc oem hardware thats worn/rusty.
I need to do some filing/grinding on the SDG rear mounts for the seat, it sits a little higher off of the rear fender than I would like.
It looks just how I pictured it, and what I was going for. I am very pleased. :D
Tommorrow I will be starting the heat cycles and break in :D

I'm looking for some suggestions on graphics, let me know what you think would look good!
My triples will be here tuesday, then I can set up my suspension.
I will be getting black rims/blue hubs after I move, and some new radiators/guards.

I'm picking up my fuel in the morning to start the cycles/break in. Can't wait!
I'll post some videos over the weekend.

I agree once you get a graphic kit for the bike it will look pretty sick.

IMO I think as close to stock as possible looks the best on graphics. Bike looks good!

Got my triples on yesterday, and graphics today. :)

I need to get an OEM front number plate, the graphics don't fit the UFO plate..
Still looks good though. :)

Looks good man, now you got to shred some berms on that thing. Just remember it's a 125, so hold that throttle on until you think she's gonna blow, then shift!

Yeah Charles did a great job. But like must of us with bikes we put so much time into, now that he sold it, he wished he still had it  :D
