Looking good.Watch out with that stainless hose.It can poke the crap out of you fingers.I made hose up for my turbo car and even with black tape and a die grinder to cut it, it was still frayed and it hurt like hell pushing the fittings on.

Its not stainless, its some kind of black braid, but it has wire inside the hose so it dont collapse..i was going to get a stainless braid but didnt want to scratch everything up..im in the process of doing my fuel line i have the fittings for a pushlock hose but it does not like to go on the aeroquip hose i have..
 
I also removed my oil cooler because it was in the way of that second fan..it was a pain because i have a oil filter relocation kit that puts the oil filter in a 90 so u can get to it..but really hard to take that mount off with the exhaust on but finally got the mount off so i could take that restricter out..i also installed a billet oil filter

Ya this kinda makes me want to change the color of my bike..i had my bike since 07-08 and i see this on ebay, i talked to the guy and he did all the work to his bike..but it looks like he had to see my bike and copy it..but he said they look different??? The first bike is mine then his..

Ok new problem..went to install my guzzler fuel valve, got it all grinded out and guess what, the tank i guess from being chrome plated is starting to peal on the inside where it was factory sealed..it had some chips of it in the petcock filter..so i rinsed it out for about an hour and still chips coming out.. Even took it to the car wash..well theres a local place that will clean and seal it for 50 dollars, but he was not sure if it will peal the chrome..but thats the only choice i have..he said after he gets done it will never peal or anything..he said the ethanol in the fuel evaporates and causes the factory lining to peal off..thats sounds about right because only place it was pealed is at the top of the tank..so i guess i will have to wait and see how things turn out..
 
Ya if the tank peals during the clean and seal, im going to give it the trash can and start over..i would rather start over with a fresh tank to get all redone, i guess i would have to coat the inside first then get the tank chromed..
Well was taking the rest of my plastic off and i have a broken fender..on of the back tabs is completely gone..so thats getting trashed..
