It looks good. In my opinion it's better that what it looked like stock.

How about reposting that pic -- not coming up now. I'm in the process of repainting. A loooong process since I insist on riding any day it isn't snowing or icy. So far I've got the tank, both upper panels and right lower panel wet sanded and ready to prime. Supposedly the stuff I'm spraying needs no wet sanding after application. Primer, paint and clear coat ... badda boom badda bing. We'll see. I'm over sanding and honestly it's too frikkin cold to paint now anyway.
