Like Guru Whiskers says...

I was getting close to having most everything that could go on the bike on the bike. So I bought another bike.

Have an extended, slotted brake pedal and shift levers and a better shift linkage and heim joints to put on next week. I think I'm delaying just to draw out the time?

Making it your own is a blast, enjoy it.

Got some new p[ics with the latest changes. Bolted on a bunch more stuff while I'm home. Added; Nostaligic saddlebag rails, Old Style Rider passenger footboards with chrome brackets, the Classic fender tips front and rear and a Memphis Shades replacement windshield. Got some other stuff like oldf school bullet lights to wire up another time.
