Thanks, man. I'm really diggin' it. Really a great bike to learn to ride on and still feel like it's different from the others on the road. I'll post up some progress pics once i get the paint and powdercoat work done.

Exactly! It's amazing how your mindset changes when on the road on two wheels. I've never been so observant going through an intersection as I am now.

And that's a beautiful area that you live in. Love all the trees!

Thank you. It's an older neighborhood tucked back into a residential area off the Marietta Square. A lot of old hardwoods and azaleas around.
The bike is actually a softtail but the swingarm is rigid. It has a mono shock under the seat. That's one reason these bikes are really popular to bob out. Rides as good as a bike with a solo springer seat could I imagine.
