Since my last post 3 weeks ago, there has been progress despite travel and other obligations. Much of it, however, provides little to show as it involved long due cleaning and final painting of parts as well as assembly of the shock bushings and forks. But with the frame back from powdercoating and most other parts ready now, reassembly has finally begun.
Above the photo shows the seat and tank mocked to the frame and engine, near enough in final position. It should be clear how the direction of the final project, although there are many painted parts (both fenders and side covers) and chromed or polished parts (handlebars, headlight bezel and stator cover and wheels) yet to be added for the final look.
The swingarm and triple trees and forks have also been installed. Since this photo, both carbs are cleaned and ready to go on (thanks, PJ!); new spark plug caps and wires have been added; the wiring harness has been laid out on the frame and connections are being made. Not long to go!
