They're gonna be red. Paint for now. Powder in the future. Everything will be black. Red wheels, seat, and grips

You forgot to put the cap back on the green pen.



















Also, you may want to locate the other half of that float.

Not just the other half, but it's also bent all to hell. Retail on the float is $43.05. Just ordered one shipped for $19 on fleabay

This spring weather has given me the build fever. So last night I made a little progress.

First, I have a bad front brake light switch. Ordered one through the dealership. Got a call yesterday that the switch is discontinued. Then I found one of my new favorite parts site, www.z1enterprises.com . I didn't see what I was looking for online. So I called them. The guy was really helpful and steered me to what I need. It is a banjo bolt/switch. Cool, huh.

So I went home and took out the banjo bolt to make sure I had the correct pitch to order the new one. That led me taking a look at the master cylinder. Holy crap that thing was nasty. 30 yr old brake fluid and gunk. Took it apart and cleaned it good. Put it back on and flushed all the old dark brown fluid. Got some fresh fluid in and bled the line. Got good pressure. So I have brakes.

Still waiting on the switch and the carb float.

Gonna get with my welder friend to help me with remounting the rear brake pedal, fender tabs, and chain roller.

I can actually see the end in sight. Gonna be riding her this spring.

Ok, got the banjo bolt/brake light switch on. Works great. Got the rear brake brace welded up. Welded the chain roller tab on. Gotta figure out my clutch issue, slap a chain on, and its all cosmetic after that. Here is the roller.

Worked on the tank today.
Here's what I used to fill where the emblem was. This stuff was great.



Primed




Sat it on her briefly. Gotta clear coat it next.
