Nice! One nice addition is the luggage rack, you're going to love that if you take a trip. I don't have one and really wish I had one on mine.

Welcome to the medium blue '87 crowd. I love the look of those chrome ZR1 style wheels with the blue. They are on my wish list for the spring.

Me too. Unfortunately I don't like the look of the rack and I just couldn't drill all those holes!! But I LOVE that blue with the white top
