I have been all over the place with color but, I decided to go back with the red and keep it stock. with the exception of the front fender. I kind of like it black.

I like the red. Good choice. Is your engine assembled or are those just empty cases in your bike?

testarossa yes the motor is somplete. the guy I bought the bike from had it in his garage for 15 years and the guy he bought it from lost his license 1 yr after buying the bike.Im hoping the motor is as good as it looks. real clean.if not ill rebuild.planning to get it running and then tweak the motor after the first year or so.I got a spare motor with the bike ill probably build that one then just swap it out?

Its alive. finally got the wiring sorted out.made a little temp gas supply and put some fuel to the fire.the motor fired right up.thanks Mike for the nice carbs. made it easy to concentrate on other things not having to worry about issues with them.im pretty pumped the motor sounds good just have a small oil leak at the end of the cam cover.now its time to tear it all apart and make it look good.thanks for all the motivation from all the cool bikes being built on this forum.
