today i am going to get the paint. I am still deciding on the scheme. All chrome, Gold, bluhd red, or red+white swirl. Hmmm. I also will rewire the front headlight, and get it a top bar.

should i still put the top bar on and paint it as simalar as possible, or not put it on? would it matter?

To be honest, the engine might not fit with that top tube on there??? I'm not sure...
The only thing you would really need the top tube for is to mount the tank on... If it wont fit, get a old rear rack, & find a cool looking gas tank to mount on that!!

they sell a top bar at walmart. and i would still get a rear rack for the tank to go on.
