I'm a fan of original scheme myself but that color combo's not too bad except the tank decal. Where did you find that? To each his own  |

It looks sharp, I think. You have a good eye for detail. The only part that seems wrong is the tank decal. Kind of looks like it is in the wrong spot. |

as long as its able to be ridden i suppose. 
but i agree that the tank decal is in the wrong place. maybe 3 inches up and 6 inches to the right.
like so.

I don't have a problem with the tank decal although maybe higher and more forward on the tank. with a 3d effect |

You forgot the clutch cover when you were painting the engine. I really like the look of the engine and headers though. What paint did you use? I'd be interested to know how it holds up. |

I dig it. If you want a simple solution to doing your own seat cover, let me know. No sewing, only a drill and pop rivits or screws. |
