You guys are dangerous..... 2 Years, 3 Months ago  
Man, this place is dangerous to a guys wallet!

I joined up on october 6th 2009. Since then, i've added:

Chrome timing cover
Chrome brake/clutch levers
Chrome finned spark plug covers
Chrome front turn signal visors
Stebel horn
New tall silverado windshield (same as the one i had on it but no scratches)
polished the hand controls
sanded/polished shift rod (was having trouble finding chrome replacement, came out good.)
Im now using Pledge to clean a lot of the bike
Have now done a sea foam treatment (as well as deep creep)
learned how to change the oil
and last but not least........

got my girlfriend (Tabatha on here) to ditch the sportbike and we got ANOTHER Roadstar for her! A 2005 Silverado with 450 miles on it.....

i need a beer....

BUT...look at the end result. You have a super clean RS with all those personal touches to make it yours. I was checking out the pics of your bike the other day and my hats off to you. You have done it quite tastefully!!!!

You're just getting started. Wait until you have a whole winter off, then all bets are off.
I went from this to the green one in 4 months.

thanks man!

i really tried to make it run together smoothly...just the right amount of chrome, smooth lines, keep her clean etc. I resisted a lot of the chrome pieces available because i thought it would get cluttered. I think it turned out great too.

Ill post some finished pics tomorrow. im beat

Don't worry about it! It's SAFETY CHROME!! The shinier you are the easier for the cagers to see you!! By the way, since your significent other has a Roadie now, you might want to consider two new credit cards!!

At least Tabatha's bike is a silverado, and already looks great.
