I'm thinking I'll start with powdercoating the rear shock coils. I've seen those shock disassembly tools. I've also sen the ones people have made in their shop. Have any of you made one?

What would be some projects you'd do to your bike? These are two capabilities I now have in my shop. I picked up a stick welder a year ago and have been learning and practicing. I picked up a powder coating system a few months ago but haven't used it yet.
I do have sweet lighted and ventilated paint booth setup that I use for applying duracoat and cerakote to firearms. Its a 4ft cube that allows both suspension of parts from above as well various bases that hold items props up items from above and allow the items to be turned and held at various angles for proper coverage. Which of course durable firearm coatings opens up another durable coating option on bike stuff.
Anyhow, if you had these options what would you do with them?
A savage needs to be goose necked. 2" on top, 4" on the bottom should do it.
You then put a front end off a dirt bike like a mid 80's KX250 or the DR/RM ones, that has under 1/2" offset ... so it will handle like a cruiser ... instead of a wheel barrow. And look like a chopper.
Cool.
Srinath.

Good info there Sri. But I think your post was meant for Dave. Coffee not kicked in yet?

Wheels. Most definitely powdercoat the wheels.
