hate to ask but where did you pick up that throttle kit as in internal trying to find one for mine but proving hard lol

[jburns078jburns]

@zero937 It is a bikers choice throttle, but I get them from Middle Tennessee Cycles. You can find their listings on ebay. I thin they run around $70, but are very user friendly and work smooth. I have them on a few bikes of mine and have never had any problems with them at all.

Awesome stance on your bike , you really did a good job. The way you cleaned up the bars is terriffic. When you welded the rear section did you change the wheelbase, or leave it the same to re-use original chain? I've seen alot of these vlx bobbers, but your true hardtail blows them all away.

[jburns078jburns]

@43Blu Thanks. It is the stock wheelbase and stock chain on it. By dropping it down 7inches it changes the angle so I have the chain tenioners tight and a chain roller on it at well. Without that there is a lot of chain slap with it.

Very nice work! Internal throttle is a nice touch. Metal flake looks great.

[jburns078jburns]

@skyjac92 Thanks. That metal flake is actuallyarts and craft flake in a small spray can from the craft store. Takes a few bottles of it, but ended up working great and saved me about $500.
