    Finally was able to go for a ride for enjoyment today. Took some pics at an old aircraft hangar nearby. No leaves on trees, so no scenery, but soon. Felt real good until the cold chilled the coffee in my bladder! Threw on a before paint pic with original tinset. No original tinsets were harmed in the making of this thread. LOL! All new to me steel was used.

    Thanks, Cowboy. That gas tank you sent came out pretty good in the new color. Hope you still need chips, had some family pick up some from Eldridges Saint John the other day, I'll get em sent when I visit them and pick them up.

    Thanks. The white letter front tire was replaced the other day, couldn't believe how much more modern it made it look. Kinda going for a stock looking bike with practical options that Harley could have built. Why dual disc brakes and a tach meant you had to have a small tank I did'nt understand.
