Schweet!! I have a similar blue FS homegrown, but its not bass-boat. Enjoy it!

Love your bike. Thinking of upgrading to a black manitou, so yours shows me what this would look like. This was before I found a NOS Hayes mag22 and put discs on both ends. That was what showed the weakness of the front fork.

That build up looks very nice.  Everything looks like a good match.  I had a 17" just like that that had the top tube sticker missing on the right too!  Those decals are hard to find.  I sold my FS a while ago, but it had a different shock…I wish I could find a super deluxe like the one that used to be on it.
