Dang Brian, I totally "jones'd out" and missed your reply when you made it (2 full months ago! :pinch:).

If you still have them and they're not all rusted out (like mine are :( ), I'd be interested in them for my ZN. :)

I might forget a name or a face, but never a cafe bike!

Is he parting it out or something?

BTW that's some killer bike you got there. Hey, you should go as the tin-man for Halloween and ride around with an axe! :P :laugh:

Hey scumbag. A very nice job on the custom work. What kind of work did you do on the tank emblems to get them to turn out like they did? Special paint, polish or did you get them dipped in a chrome-type finish?
