a few little updates .. progress has been mind numbingly slow .. and it's all lack of funds at this point .. here are a few little things i've done that didnt cost anything ....
oh, and so far the running tally on this bike is $145 , not bad at all for as far as it currently is .. ok on with the show right

i had to switch it to drag bars ... just more to my liking than the superbike style

i also remounted the rear fender , bringing it in 2 inches .. i also did away with the bolts and welded it to the frame .

i haven't decided on the color scheme, thats just a base coat of truck bed liner (i dig the texture) i might just leave it as is and put some little pinstriping in there somewhere for a contrast highlight ... i was also thinking of doing the frame in grey , ..... jury's still out on all that so..
got the front fender all done , front wheel is all drilled and polished (i'll do the rest of the polishing whenever i get new spokes , and the wheel is apart)

i'm gonna move the mount holes on the fender , to drop it down a little
( i wanna wait till i got new tires on there to do that, not sure if it will really matter just bein safe)

next would be to get the exhaust done , or at least mocked ...rebuild the carbs.. then i can start on the electrical #$%* ...then tear down and paint .. then collect the trophies
