UFO lives-on w/o Jon Cornell, good for the family and employees for keeping the business going. That looks like a fair price for the work, and the results are good-looking, and probably very comfortable. I use a Corbin, but I think this is a fair deal, I bet you will be happy w/it.
Nice seats just an FYI if you have a local upolstry shop most of them will do this for you for about 100 bucks.
That's true but I'm kind of nervous about the quality I might get from a local place. If anyone knows a good one in South Florida let me know and I'll look into them.
Here's the rest of the bike covers and scoops. I need to shave down the horn so the left scoop will fit.

one thing about my ufo seat is a little uncomfortable in front for the boys. But quality work for sure !

You should be really proud of that bike. It really turned out very nice.
Thanks man. Danny is shaking down my carbs right now and I am repair the seat pan with some epoxy so that I can get it recovered. I think I should have the master cylinders today and will get those on and bled.
Good news. The bike is together and is running great. I got the carbs back from Danny and he did a great job. The bike used to only run with the choke and now barely needs any choke to start. The seat came back from UFO and looks great. Very comfortable. The battery was shot from sitting so I picked up a Lithium Iron one which is incredibly small. I put in a mosfet R/R and the bike started strong and charged great. I stuck the R/R under the passenger seat and went for a long ride Sunday. It went pretty well until the R/R melted. There wasn't enough air under the seat. Plus I had the R/R wrapped in a towel.... one sec, Chris Mathews is ranting on Colbert Report about "right wing jackals" LOL... So make sure the R/R get plenty of air. I ordered a replacement R/R from a ZX14 on ebay and a couple of wave rotors for the rear. The stock rotor pulsates like its warped. Anyways the bike is a riot to drive. Check out some pics. Here's how the bike started and here is what is looks like now.
The early December (12-8-13) Toys for Tots Run at Markham Park, I-595 and Weston Rd, a bit east of I-75 is coming-up (South FL-Sunrise). I always see a couple of VMaxes in the midst of all the thousands of Harleys. Try to make it. They could use a fine-lookin' VMax or three! http://www.cruisinsouthflorida.com/2013/131208-ToyRun.pdf
They close I-95 for several hours for the bikes to go from where they start to the county park where it's held.

Very nice bike. Hell i'm just trying to get mine to normal.
Thanks man. One step at a time. My bike started as a clumped together pile of shit and enough ebay parts and time and you can get it running right.
Nice job Aaron, bike looks terrific! :clapping:
My, that Shorei is a tiny little battery, very highly rated tho, I've heard.
