    Oh yeah! My welder had to go to town today, so the welding was put off till tomorrow. First pic shows the oil tank/clutch cable bracket I modified - 3 pieces to be welded together. The next pic shows the small chain guard to be welded also.

    After that, it's ridin' time my brothers! MC, it's holding in the 60's till Sunday at this end of our beautiful state, then on Monday the COLD BLAST comes out of the north. Hope to get a ride or two in over the weekend . . . .

    It's mean,
    It's lean,
    It's low, It's loud.
    It stinks,
    It shakes,
    It rattles the crowd!

    What is it? It's a HARLEY!

    Don't know what it's like in your neck of the woods, Sleepy, but weatherman here sez mid 60s and clear thru Sunday, then we get some arctic air blowing in on Monday and highs will be 30s & low 40s. Those lower temps are normal for us this time of year.

    gotta get in my riding next three days. Weather report calls for temps not out of 30s all next week! Knew this had to catch up with me eventually. WNC does not normally have all these warm sunny days in a row this time of year. Joshbob put it in one of his links, in NC we can't ride every week like you guys in Fl, but we can ride 12 months. My end of state is in the Mtns, so little colder than JoshBob, but not too much.

    Should be in the mid 60s tomorrow. Got the welding done today and painted and installed the bracket and chain guard. Should be ready to go. Mac will be home tomorrow to take pics while I ride.
