good picts. nice and clean. Good size. All in all she is looking good. Once we get the new site up and ready to go, you should think about reworking the thread. I'm going to redo my hole thread once I have the new site up and running.

looks great man...

i have a question.....if you can help me that would be great.

i am planning to get 2 inch drop spindles in the near future. .... but am about to be at a point to set up my bags, plates, etc. for the front. Is there anyway i can set up my bags and all without them now to give me the proper numbers for when i get them....

i am not good at the proper know how on all this stuff but can weld so i am kind of learning all of the that while i go..

thanks in advance.
oh your work is sweet....
