Hi everyone… ``` Well I just went out there today and made the panel and mounted my gauges like I said I was gonna do back in January LOL. I have all the lighting wired up save the headlight as I have misplaced the toggle I bought for it. My wiring job looks like crap but it works. I figure I will get it on the road then worry about rewiring and a paint job, I just really want to ride it to work LOL. I will try to get some pics and maybe a new video up tomorrow. Now that my first foray int EV is nearing roadworthiness I have started to cook up a new project. I hatched this in my head then found out its been done. ``` Here is my next project : ![](http://www.bikeweb.com/images/sv_650a-1159.jpg) ![](http://www.bikeweb.com/images/img_1167-1158.jpg) ![](http://www.bikeweb.com/images/ffthing_000000-465_640x480.jpg) ![](http://www.projectvf.com/images/ProjectVF%20on%20Sept%2022,%202007.jpg) Of course mine wont have the ICE 😃 ---

yea I saw Akira a long long time ago, and looking at all the pictures of feet forward motorcycles I came across plenty that look like the bike in Akira. ---
