The other thing that was very distracting was the 09 CUSE4 in Silver and Blue being put together. If I was to grow up and wanted a fairing, that would be the scooter for me! You can't really see her very well in this picture but I kept finding myself standing over there looking at her.

Well I won't have to worry about that 09 Silver CUSE tempting me. It sold as soon as they rolled her onto the showroom floor. I have to admit, I was trying to figure out how I could "justify" buying her. Which means I was damn close to putting money out as there's only me to have this conversation with!!  Close call on that one. Whew!  :o :o

Update:

Still waiting for the airbrush dude. Got some of the chrome on so I thought I'd share a few pics. These are mostly the OEM parts sent out for chroming.

of course this will just lead to needing to get a chrome axle / nut but oh well...

The Wood W6 is installed. Mostly just need the painted parts. If the turn signals won't hit the tank, I'll move them down the triple tree to the brace. That all for now.

Finally got with the air brush dude and started laying out the design. I may get a scooter home to ride sometime next week. So now it'll snow for sure!

Got some action on the ol girl's build.

The air brush dude sent me some pictures of the job he's done. The following pics are before clear coating.
I'm pumped! Eve is going to be a beauty! I'll be laying eyes on em tomorrow (friend's picking up his new 09 Road Glide) so hopefully I can get some shots with clear on em.

Light at the end of the tunnel!
