Wasn't feeling well at the end of 12 hours yesterday so we called it a day. The bike is going to have to wait until at least next week. I still need to order some new hardware.
Here are some pics to whet your appetite till then.

Thanks Tracy. A couple of more problems crept up. We added Katana coils and prior to installing them they registered 1 ohm. The spark looks a little weak to me though. Also the fuel lever sender is rusted beyond repair so I have to locate another one. I also have to order new tank cushions and some other little odds and ends.

Looking good cloud, Hows those side covers coming? What's you idea for mirrors, stock or something a little bit smaller? What's up with your original tank and side covers? Tracy

I am going to use black square mirrors. I have brand new side covers but I need to order color matched rattle cans and some clearcoat. The original tank and panels are being put away to someday be repainted. This way I can switch between the two sets of bodywork if I get tired of one color http://www.color-rite.com/

Hey, good thinkin cloud! , that's alot cheaper than my option of repainting, though this last color option should take awhile to wear on me.(hopefully):-sThe original tank and panels are being put away to someday be repainted.

I can't win... The tach I bought is the wrong one. It fits but it is not the same face as the one that was broken. Don't get me wrong though, it should work. And yes, I am crazy enough to care.
Last bit of parts ordered this morning. From tank cushions to more shiny new hardware. The bike should look practically new. Ha ha ha... and I was going to buy a new Triumph Bonneville before restarting this project. \\/
But I'll tell you... It better start and run like a dream after dumping all this time and money into it. 8-[

I take that thing about ordering parts back. I still have to find a fuel level sender. Then I really mean it. No more parts.
When this is done, I will compile a crazy long boring list. Okay, 2 in the morning and time for bed.

I might have a spare fuel-level sender.
Perhaps we can trade for one of your black and gray left side panels?

I have two sets as well, 20 minutes and your bike is a different color.
Mike,
I did look for you in my storage spot, but the panel I had was damaged (tabs were broken).

Zip strip on the clutch? Neat covers on the cams. I never cared for the Suzi brake light and yet retain stock on mine. Have you considered an alternative? Are you happy with the directionals?
Yasser,
The zip tie was to help me crank the motor with one hand while we set the bike up. As far as the directionals... they are being changed. I am going for a close to stock looking bike minus the V&H system.
