Oh and I put a new oil plug (infamous oil leak) in the bike... Bought it from Bike Bandit and noticed the new one was quite beefier than the old one... in fact I had to use a rubber mallet to get it in and its not hollow either! I think this should take care of it!

Second that. I got the plug from Bandit and it's leaps and bounds beefier than the one in my 88. Where's the pics?!

Put a matching dent in the other side...... some poser will think it belong there.  ;)

Not a bad idea! I hate TOOLS!

Then you could use the dent to put some kind of sticker like a "Rat Fink" sticker.    Or maybe a Rabid Rabbit (thumper theme.....)

Wish you would have had it completed when I wrote the article for the AMA mag. I am sure they would have included it with Sluggo's and Demin's bobbers.

I won't beat myself up over it... would be nice to have her published! I would rather it be publishedd with other Thumpers!
