Hi MAte, I'd love to see your bike. I usally post pics on facebook then copy the link to the images icon. I'm sure there's an easier way. Can anyone help?

So the road to customising my bike has been a long one and there are still a couple of little extras left I would like to do. But to start it was the small changes. I installed a new headlight with an led angel eye and side mounted my number plate. Also added a 30t sprocket which made a great difference in top speed and also starting. Then a change of colour came about. As I love green I got it powdercoated in what turned out to be john deer green. Not a huge fan but was different. Then a change of seat made a huge difference to the style and comfort. The new leather seat was hand made by hard4u65 on eBay and is in Melbourne. He did a great job and also made a tool pouch to compliment the seat. The air box was removed to make way for the tool pouch and a pod filter was added.

Once back together I went on a weekend ride up to the Sunshine Coast to visit Ricks Cafe (which makes the best burgers ever) and a few friends. On the trip back we also visited bundamba dam and summer set dam. During a refuelling process I found that fuel and powdercoat do not mix there for it was time to have the bike properly sprayed.

During the process of things I wanted to have done I decided a bigger fuel tank wouldn't go astray. Also being such a short ass I had the pegs moved back and to top it off a custom 2 in 1 exhaust. To also stick with the bobber stylings I had the front guard shortened and some led bullet indicators fitted.

Now the finishing touches I would like to add will be a set of z bars, custom mirrors and a set of grips. Attachments:

Where did you get the larger fuel tank from? Pretty keen to change mine out for something bigger.

Got it from Hogs Straight and Narrow in toowoomba. I am pretty sure it's from a harley sportster. May be wrong tho.
