Pretty much finishes off the year. Amazing that an entire year of events I look forward to have all been killed off.

Yep. I’m disappointed. I worked with the public through all of this, like normal. I know there’s going to be a killer swap meet somewhere

I couldn’t wait until the morning, so I dragged the frame into the living room. Should have a roller tomorrow

Everything going together nicely. Preparation is paying off. She’s on wheels. I’m sorting out the tag bracket and the seat mounts are a bit wonky. But, here’s the progress so far

Well, the weather turned rough, so I’m at a stand still.

And I put brakes on...... probably won’t need them, but they are there.

Looking sharp as a pin. Nice work mate, this is going to look great when it's all buttoned up

Solid tache too

All taped up ready for the motor

Motor is in. Everything fell into place. In spite of the tape, I still boogered up a couple small spots but I’m not worried about it. Mounted the carbs and the exhaust, and now I’m sorting out the wiring.

It’s all coming together

Here’s were I’m leaving off. Most of the plumbing is done. I still have to sort out the throttle cable, and wire the electrical. Only problem I had..... sadly I cut the damn chain one link short like a ding dong.

Looks great. You can buy a link, or even a half link, and add it in.

 

[SquidHunter]

I could add back a link. I just ran out of time and energy lol. I worked on it about 12 hours yesterday. Today I’ll run the throttle cables and bench sync the carbs. I’ve got to sort out the petcocks, and I still have a good bit of electrical. I would like to at least wrap up the headlight today

Here’s on overhead shot of the routings. The extra planning and measuring is finally paying off
