Haha, thanks Gennaro! Not about the stink part though.  :P

Yeah, passenger pegs and longer seat so I can double my wife on this bike. Paired with the Renthal bars, it ride's pretty upright. Great for longer drives and such. I'm sure I will still add a few bits here and there and remove things. It'll likely change a bit still.

I would like to see a picture of the left side to see what you did with the starter hole.

Heck yeah Don! I can't wait to put a beating on this one. haha.

How about a picture of your electronics? Would love to see how you ticked everything away, neat and tidy like  :D Is that a gauge on there I see?  :o

Cal, There is a picture on the top of page 4. It's been prettied and tidied up since that photo. The beauty of this bike's electrical is that it is completely stock minus the starter deleted and LED tails/signals in the rear. It made pulling the loom and reinstalling a breeze with the factory diagram.

Thanks again for the wiring diagram for the 74! That setup is going to be so simple. I can't wait to dig in.

AND YES, that's a little speedo. I guess you knocked some sense into me  :P

I still want to put a front fender on this bike. The hunt begins.

Thanks man, but the 74 is the bare essentials build haha. This 78 is pretty stripped too but not as much.

They are wired into the LED strip on the tail hoop.

Jared,

You have everyone confused because you have too many builds going at once!  I can help you with that.  Simply ship your bike to my place, and you'll have somewhere you can ride all winter long! ;)

I only have TWO! haha. I'm going to make the titles a bit more clear.

Man, if only I could get away more. I haven't been to Cali in so long. Missing that sun, and all the half naked babes everywhere, all year all year around.

Looks good, but I wonder if it will whistle when you get up to speed and the air passes through the license plate's upper mounting holes.  If so, you should be able to cover them up from the back.

OK, at least it's not going to get sucked between seat/fender and rear wheel. And end up all chewed up on the side of a 4-lane highway with trucks buzzing by while you retrace your steps wondering where the hell it could have been flying to, while getting more and more late to a meeting...

Thanks Don, this haggard thing. It's not up to snuff with a lot of the restorations getting finished up but but I'd kindly take a nomination.  ;D

Fingers crossed it's running by the weekend and I can take some 100% completed photos.

Jared, make sure the bolt is strong enough, or you will be queuing up at the DMV for a new one in no time. Don't ask...

It's double nutted on the chain tensioner bolt. Should be ok. I haven't test ridden it yet though. ahaha

OK, at least it's not going to get sucked between seat/fender and rear wheel. And end up all chewed up on the side of a 4-lane highway with trucks buzzing by while you retrace your steps wondering where the hell it could have been flying to, while getting more and more late to a meeting...

That's NO BUENO!
