Very nice, question, did you get that wind screen from National Cycle? I was looking recently and this one you have is very similar. Thanks Lex

The windscreen is a National Cycle "Flyscreen." It fits the headlight contour perfectly.

Greetings from Denmark.
That is one really nice looking T500 you got there, so Classic and aesthetic, and still a two stroker at Heart
BTW, what rear fender is that?

If it's not broken - don't fix it. Why not?

That's the stock rear fender that I cut around 6 inches off. The reason for cutting my rear fender was that I got rear ended causing a permanent crease in the fender. I cut the fender above the crease, that became the genesis for the cafe treatment.
