Still need a bandsaw and a welder.......
Tank will get chrome side cover things and rubber knee pads like the CL. The seat is fine for now. I want to try to make on with less padding and a brown cover.
I need to make a good license plate holder and rework the wiring for the swithes and mount the tank different. I might put a MT bike speedo on this too. . . .

Everything looks good so far...nothing out of place....
Pistons and piston rings doing their job nicely....
Put it back together and guess what! Same problem. Why is it so hard to turn over and where the hell is my compression.....I am stupid. Second time I've had this apart...this time was easier but still....
Now it just sits on my work bench mocking me.......guess I'm going to have to pay somebody. They better agree to show me what I did wrong....or what is wrong....
This was the start of a 12 hour garage session on Saturday. I need to set a timer and stop after 6 so I can function the next day.
What do you think? Is a centimeter enough clearance? SOOO close....
I think i will run that light on the side. Gotta look up the indiana motorcycle laws again....i think it is just the number plate that has to go on furthest point back.....
I have used this "gas tank" so many times in the last 2 years. Even loaned it out to friends. . . . . .
Check out the seat with the battery on it. I am running this with a battery eliminator but I wanted to start it for the first time like this....... ALL GOOD?
This is tougher to kick over than my cl........bad rebuild? better compression? hard to hold handlebars and kick? Probably a little bit of everything. Gave up for today. . . . . got it to backfire! (sounded like an explosion. Just about made ben piss his pants.....)
