Title: Closer to how I want it...
Post by WD on 08/28/13 at 19:27:41

But a long way to go still. Have to finish the rewiring, put the tank and new seat on, exhaust finish paint and install... Plus the front drum conversion, new bars, new perches and levers, make a windshield straight out of the 1940s... and finish scraping the cylinder fins clean.

Here is how it is sitting right now, pic taken this afternoon...

It will be back together shortly. Hopefully by the get together, but not betting on it.  >:(

Crack that whip!

When you get the shop fixed up... it might be more fun to work on. I am getting things piling up on what I need to get done on my bike.

I do like that big ole fender.  

What's wrong with Lisa's bike?  Did she get to ride any this summer?

No power to the ignition system or fuel pump. Can't find why, only part that failed the electrical tests was the starter solenoid and it has been replaced. It will have to go to Suzuki for diagnostic work.

I'm about ready to send both Suzukis to the melt yard and start over with pre-65 Harley big twins. Kick start only with points is so much more user friendly.
