Thanks, so far it's been a lot of fun. My kid just came out for a vacation and was surprised she fired on first kick...
 
Didn't get out this weekend but did wheel Tidler out for a picture.

Half way through the paint. Need to do a light sand, install decals and clear coat.

When that paint scheme was produced, I didn't like it but seeing it now I think it looks great, nice bike!

It's one of those India tanks. Made of heavier gage, but was a bit of a pain, had to shave the tank rubbers to get it to fit. I still have the original tank and will at some point paint it black. Ultimately I'd also like to get an European tank, it'll almost be like having three bikes (well that's how my twisted mind works anyway)... I still have some minor adjustments and repairs, but so far this thing has been pretty fun. I love the front brake hub, it just looks vintage, but you definitely have to plan your stops when riding briskly.

My kid thinks I'm crazy, between this bike and my 49 Chevy p/up, he wants to know what I have against brakes.... As I told him, it's not the technology of these machines, but the souls, that attract me...

I have a few. ::)








I still have to get the seat covered. I have a guy to do it, I just haven't been able to connect with him yet. :)

Haven't been out on the 10r yet this season. Just have a little fiddling with the fairing brackets and some wiring to tuck safely away.

Yup, that was my inspiration too! 8) The big difference was my need to avoid clip-ons. My body can't take that riding position any more. :p

As it sits, it's really fun to ride. Gobs of power, obviously, and tons of confused looks from folks. ;D

You're going to turn a Motorsport into a cafe? This is trolling, right?
