Thanks man!

looks sharp I like it.

I worked on the tank shape and paint for fun, I changed the shape with some bondo to give it some hard lines, I like how it turned out. Not sure about the 'rat-rod' paint job on the tank, I might go to just a Grey or Black, but it was fun not really a priority just something fun to mess around...

Fuse box looks good, thats one thing I need to do to my bike.

Hey thanks for all the advice and input so far, its the beautiful thing about forums is the advice is saved for later prospecting. Well I'm alive and so is my bike, had to do a mad rebuild on the motor so I did not get to check the piston ring but they looked good, I also looked inside the the...

I like the looks of it.

Exams done for the summer. Now back to the Bike. :) I have cleaned up the jugs and the motor exterior some more. I removed the head-gasket by carfully scraping it off and then using 300 grit wet sand paper to lightly sand and completely clean the surface. The head-gasket was leaking. It...

Hey, Lack of knowledge is never a problem, lack of questions can be. You have come to a good place to ask questions. :) I don't know what parts will or wont work on your bike. I do know, with a "favourite search engine here" search one can find web pages like mikesxs and...

Hows the master cylinder?

Hey N.P. Mark. I know how wiring can be such a time hog, especially when the wires have no home to go to. The bike is looking good!

:laugh: The angle make all the difference. I have decided to wait for my Gasget set to arrive before really tearing into the motor, I did take the valve cover off. So I have been cleaning up the bike scraping much oil and wire brushing rust. I think I will take everything off the Frame and...
