Very nice, just curious how much noise that particular open primary drive makes?

At idle in nuetral the clutch discs clatter quite a bit, it sounds like a Ducati. Pull the clutch in and it quiets down. Going down the road you can hear a bit of whine from the belt but thats about it.

The stereo does a good job of drowning it out though ;D

Looks great Jim.  Enjoy the ride.  Are those wind deflectors down by the lowers? I love the look  :2vrolijk_21:

Thanks, no wind deflectors, just the OEM lowers with the vent doors.

Swwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!! As much as I am a chromeaholic if I could own two bikes one would be just like that. The flat black with the subtle hints of red remind me of the ole skool hot rod look. :2vrolijk_21:

You didn't say.... You going to keep it (be one hell of a shop bike) or is it for sale? Damn I need to win the Lottery if it's for sale. ;D And... oh yeah... I'd bet you would be able to get (or more than) what somebody is asking for their 001/900 "Annie" FLTRXSE2. :D :D

Thanks Gary,
Originally built it for a shop bike but the more i ride it the more i like it. The 05 SEEG may become the shop bike :oops:
Then again if someone were to offer me the right $'s i'd sell it and start over again. (I turned down a 30K cash offer last week.)

SWEEEETTTT Jim, you are a perfectionist and it comes through on this build. Little touches stand out and that bike should win some of those dust collector thingies that sit on the shelf (trophies). Love it.

Good luck and enjoy.
