so you are talking the next month off from work?
not that i see the whole picture, but from my experience looks like a good 100 hours of work left,
maybe start seeking some more hands to help now?
Nope, can't take work off, just continued diligence on my part and a very understanding wife. I get a couple hours a night, all day Friday after noon, and usually one full day on the weekend when Im not satisfying items on the honey-do list.
I have realized that some things will be good as is (like not finishing the welds on my oil tank) as they take precious time from things that NEED to get done. While I feel the pressure, plenty have started with less and gotten it done in 30 days.
It is indeed a collection of parts at this point, but minus the engine, the rest was run last year and proven to work, meaning electrical, suspension, fuel and braking have been fettled and are good to go. The engine is obviously the big question mark, but things have gone really smoothly thus far, and unless something just doesn't get here (waiting on pistons from Kenny and hardwelded rockers) it will get done. I figure another half day to finish assembling the engine, and another few hours to degree the cam. Wheels still need an hour or two each to true, and another hour total to mount/balance tires. Once its all there, you can assemble a bike in a long day. Its the little tiny things that pop up along the way that are killers. Hopefully most of that is minimal.
