After cleaning, buffing, and polishing I have the rear fender and chain guard installed.



The rear end is assembled and ready to go.



For some reason I decided that the kick stand needed to be installed. Hopefully I will be using it soon.



An illustration of why this project takes so long. Many of the parts are aluminum castings with no clear coat or other protective finish requiring hand polishing. This does, however, show the wonders of elbow grease and polish.



The front brake and fender are installed, buffed, and polished of course. I took one of the bearings out of the front wheel for new grease. Not all of the bearings are sealed.



I need a wheel, wiring, and the carbs done and I am on the road again, hopefully.



Damn! I think I'm in the short rows now. If I don't brag on it too much it just might come alive. Oh, well, I might put the exhaust back on it also.
