New camera, new projects. Getting ready for Born Free. Leaving in a week so I got to get the bike paint finished, print work needs to be wrapped up and We’re still looking for one more passenger to lighten the load with driving and fuel costs.
RL sent me some pics he grabbed from a few weeks back. We were kicking around the garage putting that xs back together and working on a few Pabst. Cold or not, gotta get out there and keep those projects on track. Show some garage love. On a side note, I’m usually the one taken the pics. Kinda weird seeing myself for a change.
Got up early and dragged myself out to the Swap in Anoka. They opened the doors a little early and I slipped in with the old heads. Scored some cheap necessities and I think I found a good local used parts friend in one of the vendors. Picked up a complete midset pegs/ brake pedal set up and a polished open-primary alternator cover for $20 bucks. I even rummaged up a a little chromed front air scoop (Drag style). Maybe it will end up on the shovelhead project but that remains to be seen. It’s still early. If you were on the fence about going… go. Still some good stuff on the tables when I left.
Another small win on the workbench. Just finished the xs650 motor rebuild. New cam chain on Sunday and I finished rebuilding and torquing down the head last night. Slapping it back into the frame later today and trying to move on to the next project as quick as I can. Gotta get the next one on the lift. Dreaming of warmer days. Tune in again. Garage features coming up soon on the chopper bog.
Body in Great Shape. Beatles Yellow New paint. Motor rebuilt from split cases up. Nothing overlooked. Everything new. Electronic ignition. Stock 125cc motor w/ newer 3 port 150cc top end. Mikuni Race carb set up. New wire harness which I already routed through out the entire body. All you need to do is reassemble and plug in the stator and reg/rectifier (also new and included) and you’re ready for spring. You name it, I’ve fixed, cleaned or replaced it. Looking for quick cash for yet another project.
Come and get it today for $1200. Easy winter resto project. Hell, I’ll even help you if you want.
