I am really diggin the bike man. I remember seeing it in person when I stopped there to get my new tank for the 695 dark. I had talked to you about getting a steal tank for my monster, do you know where I guy like me can find one for a good price. Also I read in your posts that you guys have some termi and arrow take offs laying around the shop...are those used cans? Would N.O.D be willing to sell them? Just wondering on price.
I will have to stop down some time soon and see the bike again in person.
Thanks

Have you put any thought into tearing out the airbox and going with pods? I've seen a couple of Monsters where they did that and it looked fantastic, plus I feel like that's the kind of mod where it'd really fit in well with the vintage racer "Do we really need this on here?" cafe aesthetic.
Also, whereabouts in northern Ohio are you? I grew up in Mansfield and still pass through from time to time.

The swing arm and linkage will be powder coated black and I'm toying with the idea of changing the frame color.
COLOR SUGGESTIONS ANYONE!?
I'm sorta traditionalist on frame color...matte gold, red, titanium gray...subtle but certainly not stock for the year.
Matte gold and black looks great, in my opinion. Slap on a gold retro Ducati emblem and maybe even a gold racing stripe

FWIW, I love the teal/turquoise color on the Paul Smart SportClassic bikes.

I like it. Well done. I like the front fender, the seat, seat cowl, fairing. Good job with the exhaust. How does it sound? Does it work OK?
A ceramic black exhaust system might be too much black on the bike. You have a nice balance right now. I'm having my exhaust headers done up in black right now for my mostly black bike. I'm worried it might be too much of a good thing. We will see.
The swingarm and rearsets would look good in black.
I love the seat cowl to please could I have 1

Aside from the performance benefits..... that is gonna look so sweet with the Ohlins gold up front.
With that in mind, I would go with a raw wire brushed frame. Same finish with the swingarm. Black out the motor with accents on the fins.
