Did a little final detailing before moving it out of the shop and into the office.

The petcock rebuild kit should arrive today, and after that the tank should be ready to go back on.

Then it's time to make a decision on the seat...

Took a quick shot in its new resting place until I can get it outside for some better pix -

Made a 11x14 print of a vintage shot that I need to frame and hang where the big photo is now.

Thanks, but it was just a spit-shine compared to what others have done here.

I'm really lucky it had an easy life before i got it.

One of the nicest "natural" Dreams I have seen. Well done.

Thanks. You have a nice one yourself, and I can appreciate the fact that you ride yours regularly.

Other than yours having signals, I would say they are exact "twins".

So, what is the future for your Dream John?? It needs to be ridden.
