    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Good job on that ol' motor HB! Love the polished breather cap, and the rest of the bits and pieces. Also glad that bolt turned out for the best. You're putting anti-seize on those SS bolts right?

That will look so good sitting in the frame.
 
Had you considered using studs in place of the stock cap screws? Loctite studs in place and they don't necessarily need to come out again. A thought...

wow, Steve...you really went the extra mile on yours...those pieces look amazing!! I'm super happy with the way the breather cap turned out, with the level of time and work put in...if I didn't do the parts that don't get seen, to me I'll always see them so it's worth going the extra mile!
 
Ok, so it does look like my bike just puked everywhere...I got my wiring harness back today, all fixed up, the grounds were replaced with the new kind from the fried kind...but putting it all back together! Oh my...gonna take a while!

 
I had to walk away from wiring harness a couple times while checking everything out and then attempting to get it all back in the bucket. Good luck! I'm sure you'll do it proper. :)

Had my friend over this afternoon and all the electric are a go! (The dials are a little foggy, it's stuffy in my basement) Although I do need a front duel filament turn signal...anybody have a spare?! So with the electrics all good, I bled the front brakes, and tidied it all up so the motor can just go in...then we should be good to go!




 
Well, here she is...some before and afters! Now, she still not 100%, I still have to tweak some areas over the next few weeks...but for now, she runs well...a small leak did come out of the cylinder head cover on one side, so I'll have to take a closer look at that...Sorry for the overload in images!
