I must say, I am jealous of your shop.....All that space to work in, and very well organized also...Must be nice!
I went over to Mike's house yesterday. He does have a cool shop! Got to see the progress on the bike. It's still mostly bike-in-a-box as he's slowly collecting each and every little part- every nut, bolt, washer, spacer, o-ring, etc. It is truly one of those "build from scratch" projects and then some! I'm gonna check my garage for left over spare parts and also keep my eye out for parts and deals that I come across that might help him out. It's too often those little things, the little details, that seem to slow a project down. To those not familiar with Mike, which I wasn't until yesterday, this is much more than just another bike project.
For those interested in working on the LS650 beyond just general maintenance, I suggest closely following Mike's trike build as I'm certain we will all learn tons of stuff from his work. He showed me a lot of stuff he's got about his last trike. Wow, to say it was pure bad a$$ just ain't enough!
