Real nice man

 

^ Nice chrome on that tank EagleRay - be sure to triple check the inside of tank for copper debris / chroming debris and make sure it is spotless. you don't want any of that getting into the oil. Can you believe my Big Dog chopper had that happen from the factory? the whole motor had to be redone after 500 miles. which is why i picked it up cheap.

 

I never really "did" anything , but I spoke to the original owner of my Blackline and found out it had a SEPro super tuner with it when he traded it . Dropped by the dealer today and asked about it - Sales Manager asked me the vin of my bike - came back with the tuner in the box and gave it to me , I just had to buy the cable kit . Saved me a bundle since a tuner was next on my list .

 

Sanded some new raw finish slab yokes(triple trees) ready for polishing. And fitted a new stainless oil bag:-)

Thanks dk, doing all the work myself I'm happy the way it came out. Now it's time for go fast parts

 

I just finished installing chrome muffler support brackets on the true duals.
I didn't bother cleaning the bike since we are in for 2-6" of rain here in central Texas over the next few days. This rain is very important for the hay crop.

I spent most of my day in the barn. Since the horses will likely be spending most of the next few days there, I totally cleaned all the stalls, hosed them down and put down new shavings.

Time for a beer.
