I still gotta get rid of this crazy rear fender, i feel like Elvis with this big duck-tail sticking out...

But other than that, she's starting to come together....

Yeah, same here. I love seeing all the single-seat cafe bikes, but since this is my only bike I gotta keep my pillion options open.

Here's me and my wife leaving on a trip last year. We did about 850 miles in a day and a half (Ride Report).
