I replaced the cracked o rings on the t fittings and now they won’t fit into the carb bodies. The ones I removed had a flat outer edge which I assumed got that way after 30 years. My question is, are there special o rings for these fittings??? Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Also working on mounting tach. I found this bracket in my parts bin that will work. Welded the back cover of the tach to the bracket. I think the angle is good. Not sure how much of the “ears” to lop off. I plan to mount a mini speedo to the left of the tach. Sent from my iPhone using DO...

Man, that’s coming along nicely. I went through two moves in the last five years, so I know how that goes. [emoji1] Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Cool. The can nor cap had the name of the color! Tiny letters on the back above the directions say “Cap indicates color”. [emoji1] Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Yes. I had to cut a section out of the center of the hoop and weld it back together because it was just too wide. Now my center slot has been shortened substantially. With my limited welding skills, it was a challenge. I think it will still work fine. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Engine so far. Did my clutch pack yesterday. Still waiting for springs to arrive. New carb intake boots. I really hate trying to jam the carb bank back into place. Motor pretty much cleaned and painted. Some touch up needed, though. Found an unopened can of Duplicolor satin finish engine enamel...

I bought this last month. If I can figure out how to make a fairing stay, I think it will look killer. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

Welding isn’t the prettiest. Still learning. JB Weld will be used to smooth out the ugly. [emoji1] Adjustable shocks from a ‘93(?) Kaw Zephyr. Not pleased with how the springs turned out. I may have them and the collars powder coated. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON
