Feeling a little energetic tonight and maybe a little stupid as well. My buddy was on his way over to give me a hand, but well... what can I say Im also a little impatient! Got a hand from my 13yr old daughter to help me slide the mount bolts in. Nice she has some interests. I will let you know how sore I am in the morning.. :laugh:

Prepped and ready.



and done...






Looking good for sure, can finally get the rear lined up and buttoned up, then get to work on the electrical. Progress baby... progress...

Damn, I sure love the stance of that bike! Always hoped that I would come across a J model some day.

Thanks guys! Coming along 4 sure... The way the bike is sitting now is pretty much the stance it should have all said and done. I have the forks slid down 1.25" to accommodate the new upper.

I'm stoked to say the least, getting the motor in (although a long way to go) is a big steep to help finish off the fab work and set everything in place.

BTW I need a top front motor mount bolt, anyone gone one? :) Im sure I can order one or get maybe find one at my local yard.. Maybe I will check tomorrow.

Thanks again for all the props and support!

Jack
