Yeah Jim, there's a little mini-Eiffel Tower at this Antique/Boutique on the corner of MLK and Lamar. It makes for a good moto-photo, dontcha think?

Yeah man! I've said it before and I'll say it again, that is one bad-ass looking Bonny! Sweat knows how to push the envelope when it comes to modding out a Bonny while keeping its essence.
Sweat, you recently posted a pic of this bike when you got it, totally stock. Can you post "before and after" pics side by side?
Well done! I know you are proud.

Thanks man! It means a lot to hear the praise of my creation! I'm very happy with it and I wouldn't care if no one liked it, but the positive feedback is nice to hear.
Here are some progress pics:
This is about the 2nd or 3rd day after I bought it, brand new and bone stock:
I installed Predators and an airbox removal kit, and here it's sporting some bags and a flyscreen:
I sold off the orange and white parts and bought some black stuff:
then the wheels and front end swap:
then the smaller headlight and seat:
changed exhausts from Bubs to Thrux headers + Predators:
and now to present day, I changed to D&D 2-1 exhaust, I blacked out the entire front end using fork gaitors, some fork sleeves I had custom-machined to my specs, I made some headlight brackets and painted them black, black headlight, top clamp, blah blah blah:

Yeah, very cool! I love the archetecture of the tower, though not so much the Parisians!
Here is one I made from popsickle sticks a few years ago. It is 4.5' tall:
It get's a lot of attention, and was pretty fun to make from scratch.

Nice lil' tower there Jimbo. It wouldn't last long around my house. My pup would love to tear it apart

Your bike is looking sharp sweat, didn't realize it had been through so many changes. What kind of front end did you put on?

Do you mean: "Sweat....sweet pictures..."? Otherwise it sounds like you're telling him to sweat pictures and I don't think he can do that....
