Default Ol Skool finally done

Bought the bike thru Ebay, and realized a big mistake have been done. It was a mess, bike won't start, gas leakage, exhaust juggling likebig breast, control damage beyond repair, chain cutting into swingarm, oil leaks everywhere, etc.....
After 1 year into dissassambly the bike completely and rebuild from ground up, it finally finished. It runs very strong now with 124 S&Sandalmost free of glithes.

That's Indian primary. I like the look of it, beefy. I coulnd't effort open belt primary at this time. This one will do for now.
