Thanks guys.No thank you Tools,im kinda fat,better leave all the support on there i can.Cant wait to get it all back together as a roller,but got a lot of little things to do holding me off:
-Swing arm bushings-cause im clumsy
-possible Allballz kit-makes no sense...has no balls
-rear wheel bearing froze-but is perfectly free of rust-dont get it
and need the rest of the fasteners for the valve cover-cant find right lengths
oh well   guess i'll start figuring out the electrical

What are, you planning, for a headlight? How about fork gators?

I am thinking about two medium sized head lights side by side

gaiters will probably wait til next winter,though i do like them,i am on a budget and really just focusing on essentials for now

Nice color on the framelets hope you don't need to weld on it>>>Piute<<<

[shinyribs]

I know what you mean.I waited over a month to powder coat it.Mocking up.checking fit,double and triple checking.Im 99.99% positive i'm okonly time will tell

[shinyribs]

Progress feels so nice

Was able to finally get an accurate pi c of the frame color.They call it silver vein but it actually is kinda bronze looking to me

[Daddyman]

That thing looks bad a$$

[shinyribs]

If Daddyman approves then my work is not in vain

 I 've used that color in the past ,will be great ,See the one with the green in it,is the one I'm thinking for myself,
I don't believe it that you didn't POLISH your rocker cvrthem rotors look great,Hows thoughs tins going ?
Fire mine up tomarrow,Been holding out to get a good battery but may end up with a cheapo,for now,hate that cause a great batt will self charge after a couple hours if need be.

I wanted to polish it but figured the chrome tappet covers would stand out better without it.They came from partsnmore.com and they look great.The finish on them is flawless!They look 10x better than the pic the have on their website

Havent laid any fiberglass yet.Was gonna try for this Saturday

You got me wanting black carbs,but im not gonna steal your thundermaybe

How is yours going?

[Piute]

 They wil still need to be synced ,but till my work hours kick up ,or another p/t job. Just wont to ride it around town fer now,But have to go on one good ride before the snow,(Colorado or Tenn.)
   The bowls I did cast gray,and only painted the out-side carbs,(for now)
 I'm to picky about details and ran out of time,
    Still need to get into her rear and check it out,breaks N tires are great but that I see So lots of more Detail painting to do,Chain guard or swing-arm ?Get some pics in a few hours
           >>>Piute<<<N>>>Judose<<<<

[shinyribs]

Sounds good!  I gotta check a rear wheel bearing.Looks perfectly clean,just  wont move

[TOOLS1]

Is that a hammered finish?

[Piute]

[Piute]

[shinyribs]

Still got time for now.Dont know if they will fit so not bidding yet.no big deal.I;ll follow your lead and paint mine

[Piute]

They get banged around a lot. I wouldn't paint the spring part ,
  I'm only painting the inside and bottom portion,IF I ever get back there
                      >>>Piute<<<N>>>Judose<<<my chrome looks great ,till you get in there see tiny pits hard to see but Paint it,like these backs and rim(head light) and dog ears are next.
