Hi all, first time poster!
I've acquired a 1992 Dominator from a mate. I haven't ridden a bike since I passed my test in 2003. The bike has had some efforts made to customise it; fairings removed, tank painted, headlamp replacement, Speedo removed...
I'm hoping to give it the street tracker treatment if I can so looking for some advice from the knowledgeable folks here.
My questions are:
Best fuel tank to use to get the tracker look that is (relatively) easy to fit.
Where to get a replacement saddle that offers the tracker look.
Best Speedo for the Dommie that has a few functions on it like neutral light etc.
Best headlamp replacement. The one fitted is pretty loose.
I'd also like to get the trail arm resprayed black. Is that a big job to get it off? I'm a fairly handy bicycle mechanic so not afraid of tools but I suspect I'll need a stand and all sorts to do the job. Would it be pricey for a bike mechanic to do it do you think?
Sorry, I've loads of questions but I'll leave it there for now. Really excited to get the old girl back on the road and keen to get on the spanners myself but thinking it's probably best to go at it slowly and not have a lot of bits spread out on the decking for the wife to glare at
Thanks in advance.
