the bike leaked oil like crazy. so i just decided to take the whole motor out. putting a new chain and tensioner, all new gaskets, changing it from red to black, gonna paint the jugs, polish the side covers, putting lowering struts on, install a blue collar bobber spring seat, forward controls, new exhaust, new bars that i ordered from headkase on chop cult, chopping the rear fender, and a few other odds and ends. im hoping to have it back on the road in two weeks.

Good luck with all that, and keep us updated with pics...

Im learning though. Got my clymers manual. I am sure you all will be reading a lot of questions that i post up here along the way.
