Nice work, got pics of your exhaust setup? Also what I think would look really nice is if you painted the engine and sand down/polish the front of the fins to give it a deeper look like some of the other bikes that comes with black/chrome engines. Also paint the wheels flat black would make it look sick!

Thanks man! I will be making the exhaust here in the next few days, I will be sure to post the pics! I thought the black wheels would look good too but I am still trying to convince her of that. Thanks again for the props!

Thank you a ton!!! I was a little worried about how it would turn out seeing as how I am a beginner, and had no help at all, but I am pleased. I am extremely happy that others think so! And yes, she is super excited, now if I could just get her off my case about finishing it so she can go show off!!! hahahaha, Thanks again!

the tank looks good. how about a side shot so we can see how the tank works with the new brackets?

No offense to the rest of the guys on this great forum but this bike and its builder have an actual sense of what it is to make a custom motorcycle. Great lines, engineering and taste is the most important. I just have to get this off my chest, saddle bags and a windshield cannot possible be cosidered mods, they are simply add-ons ,and chopping your fenders and rear seat support and painting EVERYTHING flat black doesnt make your bike a bobber, it just puts you into the copycat category with poor taste and lack of understanding of customizing. And i understand that not everyone has the same use, purpose or style of riding, but please consider the above when you choose to make changes to your bike. This messege is not directed towards anyone, i just have a hard time when i see an actual nice gz customized and some guy says "why did u do that, not what i wouldve done". I know im pissing some members off but thats ok.
P.s. I love my gz and i put alot work into that little 250 and she treats me good!
