Here's a link to a picture of her in more recent days, although it's not a very good one, as our garage is a bit too narrow to take decent pics in. I'll link to it, since it's a big picture and I don't feel like resizing it right now.
She's coming along, I think. The seat is the next project, just to get the bike rideable so I can enjoy some of the fall weather before hunkering down for real winter projects. Over the winter, I'll probably powdercoat the frame and get the tank repainted to get rid of my crappy rattlecan job, along with some engine work and finishing touches.
I'm not sure what the wheels are, but people tell me they're Henry Abes. The rubber tubes are a stopgap measure while I try to find pods that fit. The Emgo ones I bought I should've measured first; they won't fit between the frame and the carbs.
The wheels do look like Henry Abe's, but there were a few companies back in the day that made similar rims. I'm not sure I would run that airfilter set up for very long either, looks like a sure-fire way to unbalance the carbs.

They are indeed Henry Abe's, as they say "HA JAPAN INDUSTRY" on them.
That air filter setup isn't gonna matter for quite a while, considering the bike is missing the entire electronics system while I build a custom one from scratch. Anyone know where I can get pods that'll fit, though?
