Yeah, I welded on the patch very lightly, just small tacks.. clear coated with **** can matte, do think i'll redo it though just to tone it down a bit and retain more of the raw silver of the tank..
Got my wheels back today, damn I felt like an expectant father hoping they wouldn't get scratched with the rubber install!
haven't stuck it up under the frame yet but doesn't appear that there will be any clearance issues. Will get them under and on tomorrow just to make sure before sending the frame in for powder coating.. Should be able to get the engine painted and prepped for install then will just be awaiting the triple trees.. in the down time i'll clean up my damn messy garage!
The pic that Mikesx has for a petcock doesn't look like it has the little brass plug sticking out the back, i'll look again.. found this one overseas but cant recall vendor.. i'll get them figured out and order the set this weekend, need hot work done first!
Totally scored today for the right color leather for the seat (not sure if they used leather or vinyl for the actual bikes but I'm doing leather),
and canvas for the mid bike bag (an offwhite tablecloth, it'll need some coloring but is heavy enough and I've got plenty of material to do it again. Only cheap stuff I've rant into thus far! lol
Any thoughts on the front master cylinder nipple relocating vice replacement? (can it be rotated?)
