Copied from another board.

We just got back from Spring Wing Warm Up Rally, in Bloomington, IN. As last year, I went wild spending the moolah. First of all, thanks to all the board members, who stopped & talked to us. I think there were 5 or 6 in all. It's really nice to put a face, with a handle/name. Here's just a few pictures of what I spent my hard earned dollars on. Our 05 Blue sure looks different now.
Thanks to B&G Cycle Upholstery for such good service.

Thanks also to Country Choppers, for a good deal on chrome accessories.

And last but not least, A big thanks to Steve & Sue Baller, for such a terrific job with pinstriping our Goldwing. They don't have a web site, but here's their e-mail address & phone number.

Getting ready to start working on Wingnut's 05 Blue.

A steady hand. :shock:

Steve Baller giving it his special touch.

The front end finnished.

The rear completed.

Another happy camper.

Very tasteful Steve and nicely done.

Redwing.you're just jealous because there's not enough room on your Honda 50 to put that much striping.

Hey Goldwinger1984 :waving:I heard recently that Honda are going to put trunk and panniers on the next Honda 50. :clapper:I wonder would it be possible for one of our members to design the 50with trunk and panniers :stumped:and post a photo here to see what it will be like. :weightlifter:

Sure wish I had a picture of my Honda 50 in 1965 when I rode it from Fort Richardson, AK to Fort Wainwright, AK. I had home made saddlebags made from a couple heavy canvas backpacks, sleeping bag, tent and air mattress tied on behind me. Poor little bike was almost invisible with all that stuff tied to it and me on top! Luckily I was a good bit lighter in those days.

We are all different and that's what makes life so interesting.

I really dislike custom paint jobs on bikes, but your's is simple yet elegant. If I bought your bike of you I would actually leave the extra paint on. Well done
