I worked on bikes in my shop for the first time!!!
It is starting to get crowded.
I got the welder and the compressor wired in. Also lights wired. All I need now is a 8' Garage door and a regular door.
Air conditioner would be super nice but I guess I'll put it in the Trailer. Roy

They don't make shops big enough for people like us. :woohoo: You can put the whole farm under roof and still not have enough.

I went to the hardware store last night and got 1/2 pound of 16 penny nails and started hammering away in any open space. That freed up enough space for another set of shelves.
Started moving bikes out of the Landlords building to my place. One to go. Roy

I didn't see the funnel through the wall. What are you going to do, install a real urinal? Seriously though, congrats, it looks great.

Even has turn signals

I see a magneto, strange carbs almost look like CV carbs, small tube header and collector/mid pipe, finned clutch cover, modified frame for rear sets, mono-shock swinger. later model rear brake set-up, chrome fork legs, stabilizer, cool paint scheme

Good work on the shop Roy. When's the party???? :whistle:
