Sbaugz, do you have a set of build pics too?  The thread of your fantastic CS-1 has some good pics, but I'd like to see a lot of pics you might have taken during the build.  The pics you guys take sure help those of us who are at various build stages wondering how a group of parts is supposed to fit together.

zoeman, that's a really really nice build, and an unbelievably clean garage!

do you eat off that garage floor?  

your front fender is what i had in mind.  did you just cut it down, or did you also need to roll the edges to keep it stiff enough?

An easy (though expensive) mod that gives a lot more room/options for wiring is to replace the stock battery with one of the many smaller, lighter options.

I'm using the Antigravity 8-cell,  4.6 amp hour lithium something-or-other battery ($199).  It's less than half the size of stock, probably weighs a good 5 pounds less, and leaves all kinds of room in the battery box for stuffing wiring, a tool kit, etc.

With some modification to the battery box so that the battery could be mounted east/west rather than north/south, there'd be even more room.  Another winter project.

It's plenty of battery for the thumper, with or without using the decompression lever.

Runrun, thanks for the compliment but the pics make the floor look better than what it really is.  Nice job on the battery!  I'm using a Shorai Lithium Iron battery and like it thus far!  I just used a cutting wheel on my front fender and didn't roll the edges - seems to be fine without rolling the edges.
