Sporty narrowglide. 2000 up brake tabs. I have a set of dual disc lowers at my house that I am debating using.

Spent some time polishing the triple trees this morning. Not looking for a show bike finish. Just try to clean up the pitting.

Yup. I've had two of them before. Can't go wrong for the price.

I'll be tied up the next week recovering from surgery. I am hoping I am good to go after a week so I can spend my other two weeks of finishing up mounting the front end, and fabbing up the tank mounts.

Once everything is mounted, then she will go off for paint. I did decide to have it painted and not powdercoated.
