Here's how the bike looks now. Mods/clean-up shit done by me up until this point include:
Acid-dipped the pipe to remove all the nasty rust and discoloration
New UFO plastic
Graphics by E-Sticky
Boyesen clutch cover
Moose Racing gas cap vent to replace the ugly hose
Free-flo yellow carb vent hoses to replace the ugly brown ones that were probably on the carb when it left the factory
Swapped in a fresh TwinAir filter
Shot a couple coats of black Plasti-Dip on the rims (upon closer inspection, the rims are genuine Excels! Sweet!)
Plenty more mods planned.

Thanks! It's stock right now, but as soon as my next payday comes around, I'm ordering RG3 fork/shock springs for it. I'm planning on getting the race sag set tomorrow and getting everything dialed in, first race of the season is Sunday.
