Thanks for all the positive feedback! It's getting close to how I see it in my head...
Yup, factory paint, the 2011 Candy Fire Red had super subtle graphics but they are way more obvious in person.
I spent a few hours at my buddies shop today cleaning up routing, mounting etc. That huge loop near the rear fender is where the remote air pressure sending unit will go.
Also mocked up an "instant up" setup utilizing a 1 gallon tank; really doesn't take up much room at all.
Here are a few shots; I'll do a full write up once I figure it all out...I'm gone for the next three weeks so that'll be later than sooner.

Geeze, I couldn't even tell at first.... it does still have vulcan vaquero on the tank, barely noticeable. That factory red is awesome, always wondered why they didn't make it the "pretty" Vaquero with more chrome.
