With very special mounts.

With shoulder straps I suspect.

What's the state of your bike She'llbe?

Running great. Michael did a perfect job as expected. Just went to Mullumbimby to pick up my new front brake rotors and pads to mount up to my polished, SS spoked rims so I can either run mags or spoked wheels. The bike loves an overcast day with lots of humidity, and that's a good thing considering where I live!!!!

Oh is that weird.

From the photo, it looked like there is no swing arm, no final drive, and no hub. Then I realized it is a chrome rear wheel reflecting the pavement.

I like it.

No chrome; polished aluminum.
