      Yea it's the $20 special. Plan to move the coil now that it's right side petcock and get the start button down onto the starter.

        Changing up the bars soon for a cleaner look. Doing +4 fork tubes this week. I was thinking of going to rigid struts and a springer seat, but I honestly love my 13" rear progressives. Sits pretty high when on a kickstand but settles down with when upright with rider weight on it.

        Always interested in suggestions, but if you're just going to tell me you hate it, you can suck a fatty.

          Recently did +4 tubes and then just installed 12" riserless zombie perf zeez bars, internal wiring. Moved the turn signals but they stick out a mile so I'm going to get something different. Also I'm sick of the side mount 7" so I'm going to swap it for a bottom mount and drill the lower tree.

          Need some thoughts and opinions. I'm trying to decide if I should try to black out the rest of the fork tubes, or if I should embrace it and add some chrome to the front end like chrome headlight rings. I'm trying to slim up the look of the front end, but I love the headlight coverage at night.

              New machine on the streets

              Finally finished the '71 and feeling like going for a ride. The next step is to tackle the charging system again.
