My hand is healing, and I had to find something to do in the sun today. Got my exhaust manifold back from the powdercoater and got the exhaust mocked up. Still have to make 1 bushing and get some springs for it to be "installed". We've apparently got a sheet metal roller at work, so eventually...

^^ That splitty panel is SIIIIICK

Small update, new piston/rings arrived, so yesterday after work I put my top end together. Getting cloooosseeeerrr (sorry about the dark pictures)

That's almost exactly what mine did. I replaced the coil, points and cursed a LOT, and it turned out it was the condenser. I'd toss in a new one, they're cheap and a quick solder job. Looking good!

Nice! I have the "M" offroad version. Mine's turning into a tiny flat tracker!

Better/more pictures and descriptions tomorrow as it's dark now and I'm a few beers deep, but here is a teaser. She rolls!

I fucking LOVE RC's... if I ever buy another sport bike, it's damn sure gonna be one of those. When I couldn't find one for a good price, I picked up a TLR instead, which was a GREAT bike, but the RC's are SO sexy! Great collection!

I'm really not a fan of brats, but that's a badass lookin' bike!

Looks pretty good, besides being on a brain bucket :-? But hey, it's your head, not mine!
