the bike leaked oil like crazy.  so i just decided to take the whole motor out.  putting a new chain and tensioner, all new gaskets, changing it from red to black, gonna paint the jugs, polish the side covers, putting lowering struts on, install a blue collar bobber spring seat, forward controls, new exhaust, new bars that i ordered from headkase on chop cult, chopping the rear fender, and a few other odds and ends.  im hoping to have it back on the road in two weeks.

Sounds like more than just an oil change  :o Good luck with all that, and keep us updated with pics...

well, with my great mechanical skills, it might not even be able to be a bicycle after im done with it.  
Im learning though.  Got my clymers manual.  I am sure you all will be reading a lot of questions that i post up here along the way.
