Almost there....
New shocks, handlebars, grips, lots of polishing, just about to where I'm happy with the results. Still need to do something with the header rust and polish the aluminum side covers on the engine and the brake line is due to be replaced, going to get a stainless line about 4 inches longer than stock so that I can lay the bars back a bit more to the rear without pulling on the brake line at all.

Re: Almost there....
Are those handlebars stock?

Re: Almost there....
Next question, because I have thought seriously about those exact styled handlebars, is the reason why they are pushed so far forward because your lines aren't long enough, or because you like them like that.

Re: Almost there....
adrianinflorida, Your bike is looking good! Try Flitz polish for the headers and other chrome.
