Well, it has taken me longer than I would have preferred, but she is back together and running strong.
Made several small changes, re-wired the main harness to place all connectors under the seat to clean up the front end.
New forward controls.
Fabricated a new gauge mount, new derby cover and rebuilt my V-bars, had a slight hairline crack in 1 weld, amazing when you consider it was a 50 MPH crash and 110' slide on them.
Swapped to a black primary. Can you find my front turn signals?
My son came out for a week and helped me put her back together, thoroughly enjoyed wrenching with my son again.

So without further adooooo, the pics. You can see them all here:

Nice turn signals! Where'd you get em?...bike looks good with the black primary too..

 

Looks good. I like the black primary and the derby cover.

 

Wow, that is my worst nightmare while out riding... hitting a deer. I assume you made it out OK since you were able to wrench on the bike again. Bike looks good!

 

Turns are from Radiantz: http://www.radiantz.com/index1.html?33.html&1
Smallest I could find.

Almost back to 100%, my right thumb is still a problem, tore the ligaments and wrenching is a bit painful, but my son did most of the work. He needed some training...lol

 

HAHA! I can't wait till I can have my son doing all my wrenching while I sit back and drink a beer and supervise. He's only 6 so I will be waiting awhile.

Are you having to grip the throttle with the inside of your knuckles?

 

No, but it does keep me from long rides so far. Just need to keep working on it.
