That's funny, my ex wife wanted a dish washer, I said only if I could use it as a parts washer! It worked, I guess, she agreed, and I'm divorced. :lol:

Giddy because you're pleased with the way it turned out or giddy from the paint fumes in the house? :laugh: Either way, it turned out looking good! Ed

STILL NO TIRE!!
the 520 rear sprocket arrived today gonna mount it tomorrow get my final
measurements on the off set for the front sprocket

It's getting tedious now. Cut the rear inner fender to fit may use it as a
template for something more elaborate. not sure yet.
Time to slow down and work on the details.

took a few minutes to get it to where it fit decent

But all in all it will do the job

Got the seatlock cleaned and remounted
gonna tackle some of the wiring in the morning
starting with the junction panel then
cleaning up the rats nest under the tank
