Funny, I was at Deals Gap couple of years ago and there was a 2 stroke event and several Harley riders were complaining about the loud exhaust, personally I love street 2 strokes
The 46 box had been gone through prior to me buying the bike. The dark grease look wipes off the gears and they look good. I really don't feel like taking it all apart other than pull the lower studs and seal them as one is seeping gear oil (to the point of a drop on the floor).
Paul as I recall you were looking for a fender lamp for the hack. Just saw this on Facebook. Needs a front lens but has the hard to find red glass top lens. Price isn't that far out of whack for what is there.
Checked shift fork alignment today and finished the gearbox. Still need to get paint on the frame which with any luck will in the next week or so then it can go on the bench.
Primed and curing. Will sand and prime until the pits are gone, repair the jack hammer mark on the seat post however that happened.
How does stuff like that happen? That wouldn't be easy to do. Pogo moved up and down no problem.
Glob and texture is the brass left from furnace brazing. It'll remain under the paint and primer, hoping it's not too ugly with the final coat of paint.
I had similar marks on my FXR frame from the exhaust rubbing. Different scenario with solid motor, but who knows what could have been rubbing there over the past 75 years?
I won this front fender last night, I'm going to be eating wieners and kraft dinner for the next little while I think. Seller claims it was blasted and primed, no repairs or filler so the few dents it has are visible like the one on the left front edge which is an easy fix. I was happy to find one this clean.
