You're "seat" doesn't look very comfortable, but I do like the bike. Especially the gold clamps at the top of the forks.

Where in the hells the battery? The bike looks good! Want to sell the extra parts? PM me!

Thanks for the positive feedback...I appreciate it.

All electronics were relocated to a tray i fabricated that is under the seat. You can kind of see it in the pictures, although its painted black. I used woodcraft clip-ons with the stock forks, triple tree etc. The seat is actually not to bad as far as comfort is concerned. Its quite a bit lower than the stock, so you aren't too leaned over.
I do have a few stock parts kicking around. Seat, tail section, tailight, blinkers, rear pegs. Not too much though. this bike was pretty much trashed when i got it last summer. It didn't run and there was a ton o rust on it. I will be yanking the motor this winter for a rebuild, but I am going to ring it out this summer for all its worth

I will try to get some more pics up...a good photographer I am not.
