John, looks very cool.

Is that a standard or special seat pan? and are those the stock mns handlebars?

Was almost expecting to see a black Tkat fork brace and some ss brake lines as well.

Brian, the seat is from a 79 Special, and the bars are from an MNS, but I repainted them also. Fork brace will be silver when I do get one, and the SS lines will be silver also. See a pattern developing here?
Thanks everybody for the kind words. You should have seen the bike yesterday when we got back from our trip. Got rained on three times, and it was filthy from the road grime.

Hey Dan!

Que Pasa? I hope all's well with you and Angelina, Things are good here. I'm suprised to see you here. I finally got a chance to meet Craig. Nice guy. I haven't seen the bike yet, as he was in his car when he came by.

Surprised? I am pretty much a lurker on the site. I check in every once in a while just to see what is going on with all you youngsters. I really like what you have done since the rebuild and your rehab. We will be headed back this week end. Angelina has to spend the month with her Mother so we'll be there for a month. I 'll come by for a first hand appraisal off your work. Craig is a pretty nice young man and gives me periodic reports on that jewel I sold him. He seems to be very proud of the bike and has done some nice upgrades.
Ya done good on the Twilight.
Dan
