Default TLR Rebuild Progress

Just throwing up some pics from yesterday since I got everything primered. If you don't know the history, it started out looking like this:

I'm going to make it all white with triple blue stripes down the center, something like this:

Looks pretty interesting.

Nice to see it being put back together creatively and not parted into oblivion.

looks good, like the street fighter look, I think it would look more aggresive with a more square thinner head light.

Looks good so far. Did you have to remap after removing the ram air system?

Also, were those air intakes custom made?

Personally, I like the old Buell cyclone fly screens since I used to have one on a streetfightered bandit. I think they look good when body-colored as you can see below.

I miss my TLR... it got taken from me one night while I was sleeping.

One question.. that's the oddest coolant gauge I've ever seen.. what the heck is it and where'd you get it?
