Oh, yes sir I did.

The fuel outlet screws (banjo bolts? or whatever they're called) are M12 x 1.25, but I'm interested in the M10x1.25 screw that plugs the hole used to drain the tank. If I can use that one to pull gas then I don't need to deal with all the parts that sit on top of the flange.

I know I'll pull more dirt as well, but the fuel filter will take care of that and I'll just change it more often. waytogo

Got some work done:

999 forks, wheel, rotors and (most importantly) spacer are all on and happy together.


Bit of bling for the clutch. Cool  But I still need to paint the frame... Embarrassed


Made a new bracket for the gas tank. With the old one, the tank was resting only on its pin in the front. I made a new bracket with the pin slot a little higher so I could put a couple of rubber spacers under the front. waytogo


The battery is still up front, but I think I'll move it under the tank.



Headlight, front fender, and a few more bits are on the way, I'll update during the week. Grin

Little update here, I got a M10 x 1.25 banjo bolt and a fitting to go with it. I'm taking the pump, filter etc out of the tank and pulling gas from the fitting.



Right now the original out reroutes straight into the return, but I'll eventually replace those with a couple of bolts. Or replace the whole bottom plate with something else....

Thanks and Thanks!

For some reason I've always liked the look of the V-Rod headlight and here it is.


There's also a trail tech vapor on the way and some more bits.

Almost there!  Grin Grin Grin Grin

What's missing: wiring, trail tech vapor, rear cowl + light + license plate bracket, front rotors and exhaust (the only thing I can't do  Angry).

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.
