chompin at the bit......carbs are at wg s place , should be back in 3 weeks or so, if he is on schedule.. meanwhile, fixed trip odometer (with a donor) that was missing and scuffed guage chrome, got
damper dialed in with a new fork clamp that gives full lock to lock, put on new flea-bay score rear shocks and springs, replaced old rec/reg system with new combo unit from z-1, grabbed new nos fuse box,
had a new nos pos lead,grabbed a used batt/wiring assy and put together the best of my old and new used....contact cleaner on everything and re-assembled..primary electrical should be good to go....
lots of little other things and a lot of cleaning..
c,mon spring.........
