Little update... turns out whoever my dad had "repair" the frame years ago F'ed it up. Motor is ready to go back in, but the rear head is hitting both the seat post and the backbone of the frame. So the frame is now off visiting the shop BBQBiker's panhead is at to get unfucked by the pros over there.Comment

blast the rims , paint them black,, you can respoke, starhubs are easy to rebuild, buy a few sets of bearings based of of the plug fit of the bearingins in the bike, if the race is fine,, plug fit till the oversize doesnt fit then drop down 1 size.
get a hub rebuild kit and assemble the whole thing dry and chack side to side play. once set.
soak ya cork seal in oil for 1 hour. the use grease all over it, grease bearing cages ect and assemble. do all this after painting the hub.
ya u can buy a vtwinn repop but you have to tear it down and inspect side to sode and plug fit.
when your done , you will know what you have.Comment

On your speedo, do not replace your face plate, I think your rebuilding it. make sure they use the same needle and face plate. those face plates are worth a shitload. that goes for the odometerComment
