Bike photos

Got the bike out for a quick ride in between snowfall last weekend. The photo is a little arsty, but it does hide how dirty the bike actually is!

Do you have a thread on this build? I'm headed in a similar direction...

Just bought this bike about a month and a half ago. Hoping to do some work, but not mechanically inclined, so I will need some help...

Is there a thread on this bike/build? I need details!

Hi Abnorml,
that's a fantastic resurrection job, call it Lazarus, eh?
What's with the hand shifter mod?

Thanks, I put a lot of work into her, but it was a labor of love.
I kind of enjoy riding with the jockey shift, but could never get the hang of a foot clutch on a bike, so the lever went onto the shifter. It's all bolt on and can be reverted to original in just a few minutes.

I like it. You changed it up without messing it up. It's funny how my likes change as I get older.

I like it too!

I don't know if those little side makers on the lower fairing are additions but they look good lit up.

The fairing has 3 holes for the lowers. I drilled them out a little and put small LED marker lights in each hole. Really improves visability and fills those holes.

Swampthing has manifested her destiny..she is now a full dress tourer...The lowers holes were simply plugged with a nice plastic cap..i do like the LEDs upgrade...
