Default New Build - Not sure of look....

Not sure of how well this goes together. Very comfortable with the rear suspension and lovely riding position....perhaps it could use some white wall tyres, fresh outta cash though....

I'd just change out the seat. Not black, get tan....

If you can paint the tank & the guard to match that makes ALL the difference I think. It all comes down to the little details to make the sale. Make it look like it was supposed to be a motored bike, and not a kit added on. If that makes any kind of sense...

Put the bars the right side up, and put on street tires... it'll look good!

what about getting a shorter stem or owering stem to get handlebars a lit bit more down to the ground to get the board track look your going after. or flip handle bars over and a nice set of street tires. either way!

I like it - a bit different. I can see how putt-putt comfort types might not so much.

that would be my thoughts also, plus maybe just change the color of the seat if you can do it easy . I would go with black and a blue strip in middle of seat.

Motoschwinn has good advice. Paint the tank and chainguard to match the bike and it will move up quite a few notches. IMHO... The seat would look great in dark brown too. However, I like the handlebars just like they are.
