Looks great Tall Timber!

I went for a ride out to Edisto Beach on the Kawasaki, about an 80 mile ride there and back, played some pool at the pavillion. Met a nice girl/lady. I really should get out more.

I got some chrome bling in the mail for the Harley, but, I don't feel like working on it today. My girlfriend and I broke up and I'm depressed. Hopefully I'll feel better soon. I have this new girls number. Hmmmmm, maybe I'll use it.

 

Thanks for showing that HN. I recently used the big uhaul utility to trailer our two bikes from FL to our new place in GA. I was too dumb to figure out how to use chocks in that trailer so I just used boards to support the frame and ratcheted them down. Now I will know for next time. Thanks again.

 

Tank lift looks good...love the blue paint too!

 

Thanks mate!

Saw this, thought of you.

 

Aye! Nice! I plan to put the 16T front sprocket back on the Kawasaki soon. It has an 18T on it now. 17T is stock.

Well, the parts arrived early today. So I can go ahead and put the handlebars back on the Dyna and start the wiring. I think I'll go put the handlebars on tonight.

I'm a little concerned about getting the Dyna wired back up correctly. I'll be glad when it is done.

Man, I'm going to do my best to get this bike off the mickey mouse lift tonight. I need to get a better lift, maybe one like TinCupChalice has. I don't even think I can remove the rear wheel with this POS I have.

I'll feel better when the bike is off this lift.

 

Me as well, my friend, me as well...

The J&S is expensive, but the first time you use it you'll forget what you paid for it. It's one of the smartest pieces of equipment I've ever bought. It's so simple to use I keep the Wide Glide on it whenever I'm not riding her, the J&S is some well built goodness.

Edited to add: I just love this image Flying high again...

 

I think I'm going to have to get one of those D. I imagine it makes working on the bike much more pleasurable getting it up off the floor like that.

I attached the handlebars, tightened the fork stem nut, then the pinch bolts. I attached those new chrome beauty caps to the pinch bolts, a nice touch, perfect fit. Then took the bike off that mickey mouse Drag specialties lift.

Here is a before and after picture of the front end. I still have to adjust mirrors, blinkers, attach cable, wiring, brake line.

 

That looks NICE

I can see your concerns about the brake line; looks like you're going to have quite a bit of extra clutch and throttle cables, as well.

So now... tell me about these chrome caps for the pinch bolts. Me likee! Me want

 

...and, Six, I'm curious about your tire dressing and the wire loom/sleeve you use...please.

 

I have the stock throttle cables and clutch cable, I'm hoping those work, but the stock front brake line wont work, it's an odd configuration that attaches to the stock mini apes via a small diameter metal line that then transitions into a rubber brake line.

Here is a link to the exact pinch bolt chrome caps I bought.



I'm not sure I follow. If you mean the shiny tire, no tire dressing, it's just a new Night Dragon tire. I haven't begun the wiring yet, that's just the stock mesh sleeve on there now. I do have a big roll of mesh type sleeve that I should be using. I dont remember where I got it.

I'm going to reposition the bike later today then round up everything I need to do the wiring. Next project! Man, I'm ready to get this thing back on the road!
