I try to get a few things done on the OL's Iron every day, got the
billet brake lever & exhaust crossover installed today. That pretty
much does it for the 'right side' for awhile.

I still need to work on the 'left side'. Doing a new Energy One clutch,
Muller power clutch & XL1200 front primary gear/chainset...

Default more rim tape

spoke to customtaylor33 about the madness that happened here:



good job USPS... you had one f****** job... one

ended up ordering a deep ruby red set (seen below in the top set) of strips as well to match the tank paint.




will choose between red and black once the confused package and the new package arrive.

Tackling the wire tuck and noticed this...


Looks like there is something melted to the case. Is that normal??? I'm a total noob here, so any response is appreciated.

I got it. Carefully peeled it away from the motor & inspected the wiring. No damage to the wires so I rewrapped them and secured them away from the motor.

So apparently I thought it was a good idea to roll it into my apartment. Anyway...I'm almost done now. Headlight and speedo are done, just taking a break before tackling the wire tuck.
