Hi there
in Moscow we have a bikes exhibition, in addition to standard 9T on BMW stand, there was a bit customized one. I did liked some of the ideas, like clipoon's or brushed aluminum head, alshow I would anodized them in black. Fork also looks good, adjastable:

I had those mirrors on my Ducati GT1000 and I may get them for the T. Somehow a Trans Am screaming chicken looks out of place on the bike. Do like the brushed aluminum, although I would prefer polished especially if the swing arm and tank were also polished.

I always thought the firebird on the trans am was a phoenix. If not im glad i learned something today :D i do get the symbolism, putting a phoenix on the tank since its an homage to the old boxers and it does match nicely with the gold forks. Just not a big fan of decals/images on bikes but i understand the appeal. Just a personal prefference.

Anyone know where I can find those caps that he uses to cover the old mirror holes?
For something similar try these;
Auto parts store - used as trim clips.
Hardware store - used in the end of chair legs to stop scratching the floor.

You need a close fit plug that will push down into the original hole.

Have a read from this post on for a couple of ideas.

Yeah, the phoenix/ firebird just sucks. Hello Burt Reynolds.
