My '09 Classic was looking a bit tired so I figured it was time to freshen it up;
Got rid of the taillight and filled in the bucket, then finished it with fiberglass (while learning how to do fiberglass work). Got it invisible without using any body filler!
Ditched all the crap on the back to better show off the tire.
Moved the plate up onto the fender, with a custom 3d printed plate frame because curved plate frames don't exist for Alberta plates. Seems we're the only jurisdiction that uses this size.
Custom fabricated a flush mount for LED integrated run/brake/turn light on the bottom edge of the rear fender out of fiberglass. (Since I've got the stuff figured out now.)
Got rid of the big ugly front turn signals and went to LED fork wraps. (As a bonus, they're visible from the sides and up to about 45° angle back.)
Media blasted the old paint off because sanding would have taken a year.
Tried to mod a set of Thruxton Napoleon bar-ends to get rid of the stock mirrors, but the bar pullback put them at too sharp an angle. Oh well.
Did a 15 stage paint job with a green/blue/purple/copper multichromatic paint as the primary colour and a copper inlay for the asymmetrical stripes.
Over all, not perfect but I'm pretty **** satisfied for not knowing what I was doing and doing the whole job in a makeshift booth I set up in the garage.
