Hey everybody..!
Father's day was awesome scottiemann..! Glad to hear yours was too..!
In answer to your question about the sprocket, "what did you replace it with and what are you running for gearing"
I replaced it with a 42 tooth piece. It has been launching very quickly, or at least more controllable for me.
I don't condone street racing in any way, and would never, ever do it, but I suppose it could possibly take a 120 (2000cc) shovel head custom (It would be within a bike length or less though, and be very interesting), two 113 baggers, a really, REALLY nice Honda shaft drive, a Victory custom, a new Hemi Challenger, a Dodge diesel pick-up, along with some other "traffic" that would try.
But I'm just guessing here, and I have been wrong once or twice.
Bwa HAHAHA..!
Now, the art work is done. He didn't do any painting on the grey, only what was done in the original yellow factory paint.
He and I had discussed it, but this winter I'll be trimming the fairings up even further and getting closer to my original Street Fighter objective, and going through the engine, powder coating the frame, moving around the radiators, seat position including it's length, front fork swap, and seat upholstery.
I'm still waiting for the stripe rings to come in for the wheels, but I did get the lettering in.
I've gotten a few compliments, and a few strange looks. But I'm happy with it so far.
Here ya' go guys, BIKE PICS..!

I replaced it with a 44 tooth piece. It has been launching very quickly.

I've read through this thread and love what you have done but now want to see what you are doing with the spikes that you ate using to hold the wind Shield on. I put spikes on mine about a month ago and am excited to see someone that has a simular idea.
I put 2.5 inch spikes in the lower holes and 1.5 inch spikes on the upper. Then drilled through the shield itself and ran 1\2 inch spikes all the way around it with about a 2 inch spacing. Love the front end now.
