In goes the motor
Another great site to see! Everything plug and play. Well almost, headlight just there for placement, will be moving it eventually.
Wrong kickstand
We noticed we had the wrong stand on the frame just before the motor went in. Jason had a 45 one that we swapped before putting in the motor.
Still looking for 18's
I'm looking for 18's front and back for this project. Jason grabbed a really old pair he had for mockup. It was really cool to just walk around the shop and pick parts from Jason's stash so that we could keep things moving. These wheel tire setups look awesome and have given me a good idea of what I want.
Frame meet springer
I'm fortunate to have found some really heavy parts for my build. My favorites are the frame and the springer. There have been many days that I've tripped out looking at these parts in my living room, wondering about them and how they actually found there way to me. Now they are finally going together!
Old Bars for mockup
Jason and I both looked at these bars and were blown away. They've got a real nice vibe to them and have these funky old grips on them. Perfect for helping me envision what bars I'll choose later on. Look to be a variant of the Speedster bars. Thanks Jason.
Let the games begin
Today was a great day. Finally after months of collecting parts, Jason and I started to put together a mockup of my bike. I usually don't like to begin doing so without having all the parts, but Jason was kind enough to lend me some of his nice vintage parts to help me get things going so I can make some decisions. Here he is, doing a quick rebuild of the rockers so that I'm safe. I plan to ride this bike so safety will come first.
Friday Closeup
Springer, can't wait.
It's funny . . .
. . . how a pile of parts can make you happy after a long days work. I've been feeling this lately, hope to get some progress soon if time permits. Another shot, different angle of my same pile o' parts.
