A little refresher....The day after I brought it home after about 10 bucks and 4 cans of engine degreaser at the carwash


The direction I'm going with it.


So far......
House of Kolor Violet


The new heart for her.


Tires should be on this coming week,that way I can get my stance set up.  
I do need to get one of Skeebo's tanks.And I'll be checking the cam chain tensioner.12,xxx miles the plug is leaking,so that'll get fixed  before it goes in the frame.

It's an aftermarket Sportster tank.Any local ftermarket shop can get one.Or look in J&P Cycles or one of those companies.Unless you want to do backbone surgery on your frame,a Sporty tank is about all that will fit on.If you look at the pic of the purple frame,there is a bracket welded on right where the decomp solenoid goes(it still goes on..I hope)That is for the front mounts.There are a few different styles of mounting tanks.I liked this tank because of the indented scallops.
These tanks probably run around the $150.00 range,new.


Here is another one I did a few years ago.This is just a 70's style stock tank.On the front it has mounting tabs.I welded a connector nut to the top of the backbone and bolted it.The rear I cut the tab off the stock tank and welded it to the new tank.

The rear is an IRC Wildflare 150/90-15.I also have the same style tire for the front in 100/90-19.The tire on it now is a Sumitomo 3.25-19.It was cheap and looks like the Avon Speedmaster.I'll run it on my orange bike eventually and see if I like how it handles.
