Looks good dude! Be careful with that set up though, a couple people have broke the receiver hitch doing that. @PistonHonda has a thread with a dandy aftermarket receiver strong enough to do that safely.

Nice looking machine dave!
What's with the radiator between the headrests?

 

[JTW]

I like it!

i kept getting mud in the radiator when it was down front. i relocated it up there to get it out of the mud. so far it has worked well. i had another thread on here when i did it last spring. it does limit rear view vision. i added a rearview mirror to help compensate. i added the Piece of 6" pvc below it for waterproof storage. i carry tools, first aid kit, spare gloves, toilet paper etc inside it. i fabricated the bed and mounted it hanging over the rear a couple of inches then i added boat cleats on the bottom to allow me to wind up a tow rope.

That radiator in such proximity to your head must be warm!

 

[illinoisdave]

actually when riding i dont get any heat from this and the fan blows out the back . i get way more heat coming up through the seat

also i found a handy tool to remove those plastic rivets. Snap on part number A177 this is a trim pad tool for removing door clips on autos
