Re:photobucket album of my Roadie 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago
Thanks guys. Blue Star the base colors are paint and the flames are pin striping vinyl. They did a good job whoever done it. I like it so far. One day I would like to do something different with it. Next project down the road would be a Fairing so then I could save for a paint job and get it all done together. Thanks again.

Just posted a few more pics of the rear fender repair done. So far so good. No more bouncing around and it looks better then it did with the big cracks in the metal.
