Michigan People: Who needs a winter project?

I just got a text from a friend who has an '82 GS 650 he needs to get rid of ASAP to pay some bills. I've never seen it, and don't have any photos. He said it's mocked up to be a cafe racer, is 70% done, has a title, and needs it gone ASAP. Only wants $300 FIRM for it. Email me, and I can put you in touch with him.

Split Decision.


I got the cases split today. Now the fun begins.

Hey little kiddies!


Who wants a mustache ride!?

(she's gonna kill me)

These things rule.

Also, I got a porno spam comment last night, so I'm gonna turn comment approval on for everything. Sorry.

Mock Up!




I'm cheesy like pizza.

Got my frame back!

Fab Kevin did a killer job de-rake-ifying it! It was raked out to 40 degrees, and he brought it back to the stock 29 degrees. He also slugged in the left down tube where a rust hole was, filled in a few holes in the top tube from different tanks being mounted over the years, and straightened a bent foot peg mount. It came out great! I'm stoked to get to work on this thing!

Sunday Jam.

Rich and I squeezed another one in yesterday. Looks like snow at then end of the week... Gag me.
We made up to Berville, where we stopped for lunch, then ripped wheelies down the back roads for most of the way home.



Home boy was ready for the cold this time!

Flash.


I'm so getting the IH one.

Basement.

My garage isn't all that, so I decided to make a winter work space in my basement last night. It's neither clean, nor well lit, but at least it'll be warmer than the garage. I seriously must have made 30 trips to and from the garage to get everything down there.

Cherry Delight: The Motor.

I tore the motor down as far as I can here at home. I still can't believe how friggin' nice the innards are.

A quick wipe with a rag and it looked like this.

The other winter project...




SSSA & wheels from the Daytona I have been parting out will be making their way onto the Legend at some point.

Oops.

I'm not even gonna waste my time bitching about how fucking dumb I think a 330 tire on any bike is, but I did want to point out that said rear tire is mounted backward on this particular bike.



Have fun with that.

Cherry Delight: The Motor

I started pulling the motor apart last night to refinish it. I can't believe how clean and beautiful the cylinders and head were! Are HD's always like this? Old Triumphs definitely aren't.
