I hate to start a new thread, but I don't want to detract from anyone else's spotlight...



Ought to be able to put it back in the frame tomorrow. I'll put up some more picts then...

Man!  That would make a Hardly rider drool

like the naked look on top, show me the other side, i know it's a bit more cluttered.

Yeah, someone has been in my garage- I'm missing my chain tool, a jigsaw, various hand tools, a drill, and some pruning shears.

Pruning shears...

Who in the he11 steals pruning shears?

The only thing I can figure is I had the overhead door open while in the back yard and somebody walking by took the opportunity...

Bunch of savages... and not the good kind.

And the stealership is d@mn proud of their chain tools.

Anyway, a picture...

I sanded the edges of the fins, then decided I didn't like it, wrapped some freezer paper around everything else and shot a little more paint. It's some flat black 1200-degree header/engine paint. It's actually a fairly thin coat- the case already had some corrosion on it that made it look a bit darker than normal. I used the same paint on the muffler and after the 1,000 miles I was able to put on it before the cam chain went, it still looks great.

The tins (and swing arm) are a semi-gloss black. I should have them back on tomorrow. All I need to do after that is wire up the tail lights and finish the speedo (and remount the seat) and I should be ready to roll. I promise more picts tomorrow.

Almost done with the new speedo housing.

Tail lights...


whoopie.

Not quite ready for the road, but it's getting closer...
