    all that work you put into that bike, you think you would have noticed that the lens over your dummy lights was all scratched up... that just ruins the bike for me....:potstir::crazy::vtr2:

    I would say give me a shout as well when you come through, but I'm heading west to deliver a bike to my niece in Nebraska.

    Im still getting over that whenever I look at a picture of that bike, the front is 5th gen and the rear is 6th. Sort of like looking '56 Chevy that had '57 Chevy tail fins.

    Be safe Tink, take a break dont get over tired.

    Still having some weird issues with it. Not sure why a faulty switch would keep it from starting in neutral. Anyway, at a friends place now and will tear into it after breakfast.

    Good luck Tink. I'm sure you'll get her sorted so you can keep racking up those miles.
