The bike handles really good with the rake I do need longer forks though it is a little low in the front. I picked the green for the “bad luck” reason and so far it has held true I have laid the bike down twice”kickstand drags” but got that fixed up and he has not failed me again.

IN the early days of dirt track raceing the Harley team had drab green paint jobs and they had a lot of crashes so it was said that green bikes were bad luck. Later one of the team racers had a pet pig he took with him to the tracks and that ‘s how Harleys got the nick name HOG’S

Headlight seems a bit on the low side……kidding…Looks great! just what is the whole “green is bad luck” thing about?
Also, what are you using for a gas cap?
