Other projects moved this bike to the back burner but Im now finishing up some small details on it. Still haven't ridden it.

Tank emblems, the red is too dark but Im not going to fret over it right now. The fuel shut off didn't shut the fuel off so I dressed the tip on a poor mans lathe and replaced the fitting in the bottom of the tank. Problem solved.

Going to run it again tomorrow, possibly get a short ride in.

 

Rode tested today and nothing fell off! It had sumped over the summer while it sat neglected but I was prepared and didn't end up with a disaster all over my driveway. It rode nice and the front brake works well with the dual leading shoe setup.

The bike is finished aside from riding and tuning, double-checking stuff etc.

 

Beautiful bike. Very nicely done. Have enjoyed watching the progression.
