Hey All

Here is the bike I have. Finally got around to taking pictures with something other than my phone;

1977:





Picked it up in New Brunswick last fall.





Did a lot of work on her over the winter;

I rebuilt the masters and calipers, and put them back with stainless lines;





Lower handlebars. New tires, controls, cables, halogen headlamp conversion, dyna-s. I de-rusted the tank and coated with epoxy, painted the side covers.






So that's that. Seems to run pretty good. Ill complain about it over in the technical forums.

Cheers
Chris

I like.... :) BTW, if you haven't heard it already...that's a 1978 paint scheme.

Thanks, yea I had figured that out about the paint. Not sure if it was a mid year thing or it changed somewhere along the way.
