Thanx JRK.

I love how this bike came out and looks like I got lucky enough to get a second shot!!! I think the sporty King tank is gonna be sick as hell!!!

I have been all wound up to get it back together by this weekend. Well it snowed out today. I said "dude, chill out, take your time, you got all winter, do things right"!!!!

Glad to see it coming back together, and glad you're alright after your spill. Can't wait to see finished pics. Keep up the good work.

ctluba - I love how you dont **** around - when this thread started I was expecting to see the bike rolling this spring lol --- you have already had it rolling - laid it down and fckued it up and now almost got it back on the road! u da man!

May as well throw a clear primary cover on that biiiaatch - that is a bike that I think would actualy look really good with one.
