    Got this bike a year ago and am glad that I'm back on a sportbike (currently own a H-D Street Glide as well). My buddy, who owns a bike shop (Superbike Nation in Orange, California), offered to repaint the bike, slap on a few aftermarket accessories, and charge me almost close to nothing provided that he would borrow it on occasion to take it to bike shows.

    After figuring out what design and color scheme, we decided on this... the following are a couple of before/after pics. What do you think?

    Thanks for looking :)

    those mirrors double as the turn indicators so that might be a tough one. otherwise a good idea, bar end mirrors look sweet!

    btw, bike kicks ass! well done. custom but not OTT.

    what did you guys do powertrain-wise? exhaust/chip re-flashed/intake/rear sprocket, etc

    pretty good...but I'd take the HRC badge off as there is an actual HRC Fireblade available in Europe that just looks incredible.

    You wouldn't want to compare the two.
