Thanks, again. My big omission in my original post was to say I'm not a tech and haven't done anything like the work involved in this project so I need to give props to my "Bible":

And my friend, Kevin, who was always available to answer questions and occasionally pitch in:

It may not be "so easy even a cave man could do it," but it's certainly doable by many with a Service Manual, a good set of mechanic's tools, and patience.

 

Awesome job!! Man what a difference. Great job, something to be proud of!

 

Man, that color rocks! It just pops! Totally different look for your bike. Great job. Enjoy your "NEW" bike!

Pingman! Dude, Good color and a sweet looking ride! Let us know when it's all done!

Wait...what am I saying...we're never "all done" with our bikes! So...what's next?

I really like the color....something to be proud of....more so than just driving a store bought model, you can have something that is "yours". good luck and have fun!!

 

That's a really nice red.
Love the color.
Looks awesome!

 

HolyCrap Carl!!!!!!

That's incredible! Looks outstanding!!!!!

 

Pingman you give us non tech guys hope. Your ride is now a real head turner.

 

Wow!!!! What a drastic change. Looks great. Hard to believe from the after pics that it started life as a lowly copper bike.

 

Looks Awesome.
