            Hi Scott,
            in my case at least "Guru" only means "Old fart with too much time on his hands."
            But the bike looks great and you are doing well on rebuilding it to the look you want.
            Alas I am powerless to improve your weather.

              Hey CNJ,

              I, too, like the look and style...if that's how you wanted it to look!!

              I don't know what kind of ideas you were looking for, you've done quite a bit already? Perhaps if you stated a more to the point question you wanted input about, then I'm sure you'll get more comments on what you want to hear about!

                Sorry to hear about your brother. Nice tribute to him. That bike is looking great.

                Since you asked for input, the only thing I would change would maybe be the handlebars. But really, it looks great as is.

                  Bigfoot, congratulations on your Guru-ship, and my thanks to everyone here who have given me assistance as well. I can only hope to gain as much knowledge as possible about these machines,as so many of you already possess, and then pass it on just as so many of you have to others! All comments, in my book, are always welcome!!! My intention remains to continue with original parts, when possible, and hopefully, finish up with something pleasing to the eye while making it within what my brother wanted as well and yes the bars will be replaced with a 4 inch rise and a 32in width.
