Here is a teaser pic.........

Dang! that looks nice

Thanks, it's coming around really nice. Since I can only post one pic at a timeworn this stupid iPad I thought the teaser pic would make more people look more often. Haha.......................

Add brakes and a chain and she's rideable. And now the money shot number one........

 

[Joe-405]

And the other side of things

Nice!!!!!

 

[Joe-405]

And all most rideable finally............

 

[Joe-405]

We put a tether kill switch and a tachometer/hour meter on it. And they both work great. Best part is that tach/hour meter was only $30 brand new and its self powered !

Now its torn back apart for paint, changed color from blue to something else. Thinking burnt orange with a clear pearl over it.

 

[Joe-405]

And it's in paint.....................

 

[Joe-405]

Here's a better shot of the paint.............

(Sorry, clearly my cell doesn't add pics either ! )

 

[landuse]

Awesome colour!!

 

[Joe-405]

Going back together............... Let's ride, well almost !

 

[Joe-405]

Pic #2

P.s. Does anybody know how to post multiple pics off a mini iPad ? Everytime I load a second one it deletes the previous one !

 

[Poboy kartman]

Good job Joe......but I don't see a cup holder for that watered down Okie beer.......

 

[Joe-405]

Haha, yeah the lights and much needed accessory can come after I ride it finally !

I'm not sure why you're having that issue. My extremely elcheapo Verizon Elipis 7 Android device doesn't have that problem: 50/50 whether or not it chokes on the more advanced tool bar functions at the top of the new text window, and the abilities to select photos and insert them into my post's where I would like them seem to be absent, but I can upload and post multiple photos.......

Why a supposedly superior Apple product has that issue is beyond me......

 

[firemanjim]

Maybe because it has a worm in it.....

 

[Joe-405]

So I tuned the carburetor and did the rejetting................. And now we have a huge problem !

So much for the sleeper look. The camshaft I picked has one heck of a idle now that it's jetted correctly even with the muffler on it ! And the other problem is the tach is set accordingly and when you shut the engine down it tells you the max rpm and well let's just say it was reading 9,000 rpm's.......... Oopsey. This thing is gonna fly when we get it back together for the last time. All we gotta do is get the seat mounted solidly and put the brakes and chain on it. Taking it to the first car show this Saturday hopefully. Time to see how those clone tav2 converters hold up. Haha

 

[Joe-405]

So I really wish it wasn't gonna be 30* this weekend. Cause our warm weather is gone and all I need to finish it completely and ride it is the brake caliper and the brake lines. But you can bet your cold backside that I'm gonna still ride it hopefully this weekend !!! Now I gotta figure out how to get a video to work.

Pic 2 ................

Sorry the pics suck, camera was dead so I took a pic and had them developed then took a second pic in a pic and posted them. I will also take detailed pics this weekend also. As my day off is Thursday and Friday. And we are getting the last pieces then to go for a ride ! Freezing cold or not, lol

 

[landuse]

Sweet!! I look forward to the vid.

I like the little reflectors that you stuck on the rear legs of the stool
