Did some moving this weekend. Got married 2 months ago and had to find another apt with washer dryer and dishwasher. Found one with garage so now I'm set.

Putting motor on its side and lowering frame down was a lot easier than I expected. Taping and mounting probably took 20min tops

Got some rear struts in and brake seals. Had to clean up old apt today so I didn't get much done on the bike

Got the forks filled and sealed up so I could put the front end together. Then threw on the rear wheel just to look

Enjoying this build thread. You're going to end up with a nice, clean, cafe bike with really nice proportions. The Avons look great with the black Comstars!
