'fantastic job!

But with that seat, I'd bob the rear fender and fit a less prominent the rear light. The black and Anteres is a super look!
Appreciate good people: they are hard to come by.

Super nice job, I had a honda 450 in the late 70s that was close to that color.
I noticed the golden color of inside valve cover, but their was not match carbon
in the combustion chambers compaired to my bike. It must have been ridden
at highway speeds and good fuel used I guess. I had way more carbon buildup
and my gl is supposed to be low mile bike.
