Spent an all nighter wrapping things up. Timing adjusted. Had to tear in to the clutch to clean the plates and will also need a new clutch and front brake cable. For those that don't like the solo seat, I do have a nice white and black 2 up seat that I can put on and it only takes a couple of minutes to swap out. I also have a set of bubble bags I'm going to put on but need to fab some mounting brackets. Runs really well once I got the petcock to stop leaking. Took a short cold ride this am before the storm hits. I think I'm done with the major work and now will spend time fixing small things that need taken care of. Nice little bike,older and in better shape than me.

Excellent job. I like the single seat, too.

Great looking bike, wish it was in my garage.

Love the single seat but it just needs the rear rack / carrier to finish it off.

Hope it goes as well as it looks.
