I will put up some close ups of the fuel sight gauge on the tank once I take some decent ones. I will also post a video of it starting up in a little bit as well. Thank you for all of the compliments!

The painter that I used is also a fabricator and when I told him what I wanted he was able to build it for me ($30 on top of the paint job!). I've seen videos online on how to do it and it looks easy if you know how to weld. You can even go to LowBrow Customs and they sell a kit with instructions on how to do it. In my opinion, it was the easiest solution to the lack of a trip meter or gas gauge on this bike (plus it just looks freaking awesome!).

And here is a somewhat decent quality (sorry for the wind noise) cellphone video of the bike running. The exhaust is actually a lot deeper in person and this thing is LOUD. This is the muffler that comes with the BCB kit in case you were wondering. I just talked to a highly recommended bike shop and they will dyno test and tune the bike for a really decent price so I think that's my next stop.

I think we all need that gauge or some form of it. A light would have worked on our but on your bike it looks just plain cool.

I had the idea to make a take-off at the petcock using a banjo fitting on one of the petcock bolts, run small dia. copper tubing to the center of the top of the tank near the seat, and run some clear plastic tubing up the top center of the tank with a pinhole vent at the top. I sort of gave up when I couldn't find the right sized banjo bolt.
