Thanks Elixer, those are great pics of an amazing looking bike.

Now I just have to ask... The song that is etched into the leather has to be "Crocodile Rock", right?

You've done a super customizing job on a great looking ride!
Congrats!

side shot (right)
Did you notice how the handle bars and tank chrome look gold in this picture.  Looks cool!  With that paint and leather, I like to see the all the chrome gold tinted.

Those handlebars may be some of Harley's Polished Stainless Steel....they'll sometimes give a slight gold hue.  Some people complain about that and rather have chrome for the brighter reflection.  I have 'em on my softtail and never bothered that they weren't chrome.  just sayin'.  spyder

Nope. No bling bling on this scoot. All CVO OEM chrome only mods are the seat(s), saddlebags and my silverdollar triple post lock ring, and a sq motor upgrade to 120 cu in

Gator seat with the front and rear legs folded in, notice the horns as well...I was told the hide was smuggled in from Mexico by the way of El Paso..because of Peta's regulations.

KnotHead....nice. Clean look, and I like your bib. I did the 2-up w/rest & racks also (as shown here). Noted your C-Lake, who did your seat work? Johnny Roberti did mine. Great Guy..true craftsman.

Just thought it up, was tired of the cheap plastic insert HD installed so I bought a silver dollar, took it to a machine shop, had them drill it out same I'D, then used silicone to glue it in place.  The US mint did not produce a 2008 silver eagle which was what I really wanted but so be it.
