I got the NOS Carburetor installed and she sounds beautiful. She runs strong after some TLC.

All I have left:
  • Light wiring (headlight/brake/turn signals
  • Brake pads
  • New handlebars
  • New bolts for handlebars controls
  • ...and she's ready for registration!
I'm super excited to get her registered. After that, it's just cosmetic parts until she looks pristine 🤌
 
You're in the home stretch! It's such an awesome feeling. Handlebars are a fun shop, I tried like four different kinds til I found my One True Handlebar (Emgo LTD style).

I do like the look of that style. I definitely want to go the Cafe Racer aesthetic.

The part I'm most looking forward to it driving it around my city's Old Town, which regularly has some classic cars drive through in the daily. I'll probably be the youngest one there with a classic bike 😁
