Yes I did, I found em on fleabay, I'm thinking they are going to give it that 'touch' that it needs.
I really would like to find a nice heavy chrome chain guard for it (hint),
hit me up if any of you might have one kicking around. Thanks 8)

I got the decals today! Here's a couple close ups, hopefully the sun comes back tomorrow I'll get some better shots...

Yeah it is a deer whistle hahahah good eye! There were a couple holes in the tank (pre drilled) that I wanted to cover.
I think they fit perfect. Thanks!

I'm finally done! I posted the new pictures in the 'gallery' section. Thanks for all the nice comments. I should've entered the build, but I think I'm just happy to have taken a decrepit bike and gave it a new lease on life...I'm happy

i think you should give the grill some teeth, or throw some bugs in there for effect

Great to see that you are still enjoying this bike and are able to tweak it here and there for you needs.

One of my favorite RRB builds!!!

Cool location for the speedo!

 

[mastronaut]

I really had no choice! I had to put it where I could see it.
If I shine my light down it acts as a dash light! Awesome...
