bike update. 50 degrees in feb!!!

welcome to Minnesota in February? 50 degrees today, and a good reason to turn the heat up on myself on the projects. and with that, some updates here as well. starting to come out of a self induced (life, ex, work, etc) cabin fever spell, and with all 6 cyl firing. and the boss picking up some new bikes has only hastened the cause. so the bike was quickly torn down to the bare frame, and color schemes laid out in my head. so motor out, and down to the shop today. to which i tore right into, knowing i was going to need to re-fresh this here 45 year old motor...


at the shop, finally a use for my new box!


and while at it, all the chrome is heading off to be etched, before being powder coated. by now as most might have noticed, i dont dig shiny. so chrome and polished bits will all be matte or flat. i suppose i will leave the details at that, and let the rest come out as it moves along..

and one of the two new toys the boss picked up. so yea, now i HAVE to get mine done hahah..
