New coil mount
Taking care of a few little details. I cut up the top motor mount so I could relocate the location of my coil. Pretty easy to do. Not rocket science.

Wheels
Installed the spacers cut by DJ. Decided to throw the tank, fender, bars, and seat on there to see what it looks like. I like it.
Getting my seat together. I think I'm going to pay to have it covered by a professional. The Haifley brothers do awesome work at a fair price. This used to be an old Cobra seat. I stripped off the old nasty upholstery and old foam. I picked up sleeping bag cushion at Walmart, cut it to fit the pan and glued it down. I may add one more layer for comfort.

Little frame work


Rear rocker box cover sitting a little too close to the backbone of the frame. I cut a notch for clearance and made a little patch. Welded up and finished with a little file work and its good as new and solid. Last two things to do to the frame are passenger peg mounts and weld on the seat hinge and then off for powdercoating!

Took the family up to L.A. to visit my sister and bro-in-law and the two nephews. We stopped on Melrose Ave. for some lunch and dropped in on Powerplant Choppers. Its a little hard to find if you're not careful. The owner was busy with a customer that is having a chopper built but he kindly let me snap some photos. I bought a hat and the owner's store manager gave us some free stickers. Cool shop with some nice bikes.
