After starring at it for a few days, riding it, falling in love.
I cleaned it up a bit, ( not with a sponge)
re routed wire, pulled airbox and various bits an pieces off.
jetted carbs, chopped up airbox, ect
This will not be a shinny pennie.
This will be an ugly beast, loud and obnoxious. Hence painting a dented tank.

A little movment, Rearsets on, brake and clutch lines on. put on the Brembo gold brake and clutch master, but will change out to some sweet Brembo radial masters. Relocated kill switch, and trying out an old Honda turn signal, Dip switch, much smaller then stock. Still waiting on parts, most from Europe.

New battery, 1.6 lbs, and a bit smaller. time to start fabing a tray and moving parts around. Which always leads to making new wiring harness's

While I'm waiting on various parts from Parts around the world, I decided to dry fit and pull her out of the corner for a Photo op
