        Been puttering with stuff the last couple of days.Wanted to see this myself and thought I'd share


        A full mock up.Just a few things left to do.Should be done tommorow.Then if things go OK there's a biker blessing and "thunder ride" on Saturday that Ill go to.May take a flier on the ride if there's to many "thundering" Harleys

              Went to the Biker Blessing and 'Thunder Run"today,yes I rodeHere are most of the bikes that where there





              Three other Harley's showed up late and I didn't get pics of them.Pastor was hoping for 50 or so but iffy weather keep a lot of people home.Not my usual thing but the ride was fun.

              Old Yeller ran great but had a few shakedown issues.Had to adjust the clutch twice to get it to stop dragging.Turn signals didn't work,the relay was plugged in wrongMy carbs my have been pretty good before.Now they are great!More kudos to Mr.Barr's o ring kits and a through cleaning.one more thing:

              Old Yeller has now been christened

                By christened do you mean the local stray lifted his leg on your bike tire?

                    Yeah it was good for the most part.My wife came very close to having a really bad accident in her car just before the blessing.That was scary,other than that it was good.

                        She went home to get my camera.Just as she was turning into the church parking lot and not in her lane a young guy speeding crested the hill.He just got out of he way.He turned around and came back to confront my wife.My wife was doing something stupid so was the other driver and he was told so.To his credit he admitted it.Just a little scary.

                            Forgot the strange/funny thing that happened while I was getting the bike ready to go.I turned the key on.Nothing,absolutely dead electrically.Have not started it in a while but there was no trouble like this last time I did.Since I changed the RR i immediately thought I didn't connect something right.Check the fuse box connector,fine looked at the ignition switch,That's fine to.Flapped around a bit more then decided to check what I should have first.Pulled out the main fuse.Blown,plus it's a 10 amp when it should be 15.Great got to get fuses,no wait I have 3 box's full of fuses.Pulled the cover off one box,pull the 15 main out.It's blown to.OK grab the other one,15 amp not blown.Into it's slot and bingo electrics are back.

                              So glad to see you out and about on the 750 again finally, really looks the deal and glad to hear you had a great day (except the one minor mishap of course).

                              Now time to go get some km's on those tyres and have some real fun

                                Our "Blessing of the Bikes" is next weekend, hope it will stop raing so they have a good turn out. Looks like yours was a good time and Ol' Yeller looks great!
