There must be a lot of satisfaction when you stand back and look at your build... well thought out, no doubt a great runner and very pleasing to look at. Nice going, bud.

I agree SB, and I wish he would quit doing that because a Newsboy is going to be at my house in 3-4 weeks due to Tyrslider. :)
My wife is probably going to use it to run me down when it gets here.

Nice!

Should be roadable this wknd!

Went through the jackshaft last night; it's dialed. Rear fender is mounted proper. Chain guard is modded.

Need to mount drive side tensioner, Figure out the front fender, make an adapter for and bleed the front disc brake, cables, throttle, and I'm sure, oh gastank and rack, I'm forgetting something.

Probably get to ride it around a bit before it goes to it's new home. :(

Oh Well! Guess I'll have to make more!

Maiden voyage yesterday! Freaken Awesome! Though 4th gear was overdrive, we had a bunch o' runs as a 3 spd w/ o/d. But it's a 7 spd.

So, today I down geared the chainring and it's even better. Was gettin' dark (no lights mounted yet) so I couldn't get it up to speed. Noticibly lower though!

Cheers!

P.S. Still a coupla loose ends but runnin really nice!
