my 2nd/3rd mod! WoohoO!
2 weeks ago I finally started doing some small cosmetic mods.. fender elim and flush mount turn signals.. then put some pin stripes on my rims..
Today I replaced my windshield with sporteck red chrome windshield and replaced my mirrors with targa carbin fiber mirrors...
Next up, Micron exhaust!
I was thinking about the red fade to black instead of the red fade to chrome.. what do you think would look better?

Yeah.. it's hot enough to make the devil sigh.. But as long as it's under 100, it's ok to ride.. good thing it's "dry" heat huh?)
I'm off 113th and Holly so you've probably seen me around!

Good mods. I like the windshield. The red to black would be nice but since you've got a black can now, red to chrome might give you more mod-satisfaction.

haha! You read my mind!!! Yeah.. that's me delima.. red to chrome would be really cool but I really don't have any other chrome on my bike.. red to black would match my bike better but would feel like I'm just chaning 1/2 a can! haha!
Probably can't get the can until Christmas so I'll have plent of time to decide..
Here's the 3 pictures I Photoshopped.. which one do you like?
BTW: I bike is redder than the picture (which looks kinda orange).. it's stock Honda red.
