pictures!

Man o man, the bike actually looks like a real motorcycle. The exhaust is in getting painted today along with six other sets of pipes. Thanks for all the comments on what seat color to go with. I asked Jim- the bikes owner, and he said brown, so brown it is. Here is a cool picture of my dad lapping tappet adjusters.




I got the mats glued and riveted onto the boards.

  1. Matt, again, very cool.

    I was looking closer at your shop thinking, damn, that'd be an interesting place to work, then I realized you're in SD. Not exactly next door, but about 130 miles from where I'm currently located. Small world. Some day it'd be interesting to come and see that shop.

  3. Matt,

    I would have, alas, in one week, I leave for Germany and have a few things to do before then, as you might imagine. When I get back, if the weather is good, I'll put your shop on my short list of places to visit. Maybe I could even learn a trick or two.
