I love the color scheme! Personally, I think it would look a whole lot better with a different bumper, or at least a different color, and also if you removed some of those stickers. Definately a beautiful bike, in any case.

im actually a fan of sickers, but after the bumper was red i didnt like it all that much either. What kind of bumper would look sick on this bike?

I think a duncan racing bumper would look good.. as for the sticker.. I love them too but I think you just have to put them on a little nicer.. they look scattered.. clean them up a little bit and it would look real nice.. doesnt look like the plastic matches up..

Looks really good!:) I do like the whole color scheme, but i think it would look better if you took the stickers off and left the number plates but thats just my opinion, whatever looks good to you is all that matters:macho! Are the bumper and a arms powder coated or did you paint them?

Whats up with rear fender not matching up. Other than that it looks good. Maybe go with back on the bumper and it will look alot better

To me I think they are the same stocks that black insert in the shock is gone that's why it looks different I think but I could be wrong. It's a great looking bike exrider23.

It looks like one of the shocks is mounted upside down.. Still a nice rebuild though....

I think both of your shocks are mounted upside down.

Shocks look correct to me, thats how mine came off and thats how servicehonda shows them w/ the adjustment ring on the bottom and the shaft on top.
