    Looks good Stan. Shouldn't be long now. Carbs, exhaust, clean up wiring, add gas, hit starter, and GO!

    So why the fairing?

    'cause chicks dig it.
    And you can ride with your leather unzipped when it is as hot as hell and then some.
    But mostly, 'cause chicks dig it.

    You think it's butt ugly now?
    Wait until you see my fat ass on it.
    Thanks Tom, I have seen your work, and it is tops.

    Some touching up to do here and there.
    Yeah, it's butt ugly, but I might have to borrow a few lines from it……
























    Just kidding, it looks great!

    I hope mine turns out anywhere near that nice!

    Well, F/B, it's missing a few bits... But when complete it's obvious it IS going to be WOW!

    Looking good Stan.

    I remember a tread where a member was showing what he did about that shock mount.

    If I recall he drilled through the remainder, stuck a bolt though then welded the head on the inside.

    Thanks Garth, we got this scheme down here in the colonies, but I do believe Europe got it as well, I had to source the decal kit form the UK, many thanks again to Chris.
    This was the colour scheme that Jennifer was dressed in from the factory when she landed on the showroom floor here in Souf Effrika, back in '80, I think it is understated, but attractive.

    sinkankan, hahahaha, mono shock, I like it, yeah still much work to be done, nowhere near finished yet, just had to finish the clothes and display them as Garth was chewing my ear off about it, you know how impatient he can get, its a Kanadian thing.
    I need to turn up a top shock mount, the one that was on there snapped off just where the threads begin, strangely enough, I rode it for many years without a nut to hold the shock on and it never fell off.

    Jenifer.

    Very interesting use of the mono-shock theory.
    What are those tyres, it looks wicked.
