Well, here goes. I have to start somewhere.
Picked this gem up in Texas last week and it runs well. It appears the valve cover gasket has a bit of a leak but ill address that soon enough. I still have to learn what a valve is.... (Brad/Justin/Redbird) insert banter....
It came with no front caliper so I guess thats where I will start. the PO had something interesting going on with the rear brake so it wont engage fully either. The rear of the frame was already chopped so some reinforcement is due, probably a cafe loop. The tank that is on it is a NOS rust free 360 tank, luckily I was looking for one of those. Alas, It does not line up with the frame.
I am going to go with a tank from Sean at Roc city. I don't have the skills for that kind of fab work. the seat on the other hand will be, since they are so abundant down here in NOLA, made from nutria pelts. MUWAHAHAHA!!!
