That is a nice looking machine!  I know nothing about the SOHC (and only a little more about DOHC) but what is that little pod filter sticking out there?  Probably sounds like a dumb question but...

Nice job guy.

I thought the added oil tank was for nitrous at first

On the sohc bikes, the carbs here are running with pods, are they CV carbs I'm looking
at?

Nope. No padding. But its comfy.  
 Ya its been awhile since I been on here. Lol. I picked up 2 more 78's last week also.
One is converted into a 3weeler the other one is gonna get tore down n built up.  My son is exited bout helping me with it. And he is only 2 1/2. So that pretty cool.  He was 1 1/2 in this pic by the way
