Picking up the fuel rail today and should have time this weekend to layout the fuel system.  Got the seat mounts and pins in and laid out the electrical to finish up the headlight and tail light wiring.  Still need to figure out my clutch cable, stock was too long and i thought i had a good measurement for a custom length but it was far too short. Missed another completion date for the bike show next weekend but have a dyno appointment next month on the 17 so we're full go til then.

about 90%
been slow going, summer was busy, 2 kids and a wife and full time job....
the fuel system is the biggest part to do and then its odds and ends to the finish line, hoping for spring completion.
