Re: Airhead Cafe Racer - 81 BMW R65
Ok. Super sorry everybody for dragging this out. I've just had a very busy few months. But I'm back on the job and hope to be rolling here before too long.
Progress Update:
I'm STILL waiting on the tank.
Need to slap the jugs on.
Need to finish connecting some wires.
Need to connect brakes.
Need to run throttle and choke cables.
All up I figure I have about a weekend's worth of work. If that.
Also, 66Replica came by and helped me with my seat, which is much appreciated. Laying fiberglass by yourself suuuuuuucks.
Floral foam madness.
Love my Benchmade.
This was kzpokey's idea. Works beautifully.
Got the form.
I'm laying resin while 66Replica drops the glass.
Please excuse my dirty garage. We just moved and the garage became the U-Haul drop off point for all things. Getting cleaned soon.
Well that's it. Hopefully I'll be pulling the seat tonight and doing some trimming and whatnot. Then this will go to the painter for them to fool with the finishing. Next step: Get the jugs and headers on. Maybe start it? WEEE!! I've been slow about the jugs, because of the piston rings being so hard to compress while sliding them on. I need another person in there. Replica? lol
