Just dry fitting everything. Exhaust is on, rear fender cut down and modified, clutch, brake and throttle cables installed. Throttle cable could be a few inches longer, though. I'm using wide beach bars which look like the handlebars from the early 1900's. Thought about cutting a few inches off them, but I want to move the seat back and I have to wait for a different seat post to see how it will affect it. Got some nice braided split cable loom to hide all the rubber looking cable sheaths.

No. just getting everything fitted up then I'll fire it up, maybe test ride it. Make any corrections first. Then I'll strip it all down to the frame and paint it and do final assembly. Same procedure for every car that I've done

Had to look it up and that's one of the things I found. Maybe H-Bob is getting into rap and street dancing.
