What Have You Done To Your Bike Lately?

my buddy took off to mexico so me and another buddy kidnapped his harley and took it apart, started chopping the rear frame rails off, threw on new rear shocks, new bars are being bent today and a pan seat, made the new rear fender yesterday and front fender is almost done, and his tank was leaking so we scooped up a new one.
tins go into paint this weekend.

right now he doesnt have signals or a brake light, so we need to figure that out still.
 
Just finished getting 3 coats of DuPont clear, new decals which have been cleared over, front fender more evened out so now it looks more proportionate, decals on the tank is now white & new decals on the on the tail!

The paint now looks really deep...I love it!

Nice bike brother!

Really nice job, the yellow accents liven up the bike. Great shot too! :thumbup:

4 weeks ago some one pulled a left on me on a parking lot of all places. Broke my collarbone, and the bike is mainly cosmetic damages but you know how there's that Ducati sales tax on everything. It exceeding 10k in damages so it was a economical write off. Tried buying it back since I can fix the bike myself for less but they wanted 6k so eff that. Wanted to track it next season too, oh well.
 
I bought a cover and put it on my bike in the garage so it doesn't get all dusty while she hibernates until Spring.

Wow! Now what are you going to do? Hopefully you will get a good amount back, you going to stick with Ducati or are you going Japanese?
