what picture? must be a shadow or something. There is a broken cylinder fin on the far right side.

It is looking good. I like the way the valve cover turned out.

well its done, about 98% done but I rode it again today for another shakedown run. after having the carbs off about 6 times I think everything is right now.

Probably not. The tread pattern like that actually rolls easy and provides traction on braking. At least that's the theory.

jzanutto, that is an outstanding bike. Congratulations!

thanks guys. I was a little fearful of the chen shings, I was going to pull them off, but you guys had a good thread going about those tires and after reading how hard everyone pushes them, I'm just going to keep them till they wear out.

one part I was waiting for was the swingarm bushing tube. I put in new bearings, but the tube was slightly undersized due to corrosion/erosion so once that tube gets here I will drop the front of the swingarm down and shove that new tube in. I have a little bit of swingarm slop with that worn tube.
