    shovelfun

    i have been gone for a long time but now i am back , last time i had 1 bike and now we have 6
    changed mij sporty a bit , also made the swingarm 3 inch longer , makes a world of difference



    we also have 2 xs650`s now , one is almost ready , the other one needs a lot of work



    also dit a buttugly xj600 and now it is a little monster



    and now after all those years i was finally able to buy an awsome shovelhead , it is a 1979 1340 fxr , did some little things to it , a different handlebar , lowered it a bit and threw a assbucket seat on it and changed the points for a dynatek , it will have to do for this season , next winter i will make it my own , do an old school paint job with flakes and scales and that kind of shit but for now it will have to do , the bike runs like a dream , it leaks a bit out of the breather tube , but i also leak so i will let it be for now , there is one thing i do have to do and that is to paint the chopcult logo on the coil cover :-)

              Not a FXS either.... It's more like a FLH..... What are the first 2 numbers in the serial number??

                      Wrong dash no mid controls, 5 gallon tanks, large battery etc...

                      This is what a stock 79 FXS looks like just in case you didn't know...

                        But what ever it started out as you have a nice bike... And that's all that matters...

                            i was thinking about making me some mid controls , perhaps a little bit more to the front than the normal mids

                              cleaned the carb in the ultrasonic cleaner , nice old butterfly keihin , the accelerator pump did not werk to well , membrane was torn , also there was no rubber ring and washer under the pilot screw , tha main jet is 160 and the pilot is 68 , seems a bit lean to me but we will see what happens when the carb is on the bike again
