    Lol, so does winter. I’m here a lot though I haven’t said much. I rebuilt some petcocks and a fuel octopus and got my fuel sending until around....cleaned, sanded and polished to a state that I’m sure they didn’t look that good 40 years ago. Still collecting parts for my sf and hibernating in the shop. We’ve got some welding to do and some seat finding, and brake light finding to do and I can finish the rear end up. I’ve ended up changing my mind again from a total custom build to a sorta stock custom .....and I’m thinking I’ll go back to my standard and redo that custom when I’m done with the sf. Things are happening at my house. My boy just brought home an old Cummins turbo diesel that he’s going to strip to the frame and rebuild. I think he inherited some of my sickness, but he’s always looking for results now! Lol I think he’ll need about 30 years until he starts polishing every part, or maybe that’s not a “truck thing”. Anyway, he’s up to 3 trucks, a Jeep and his Honda a dirt bike and the xs850. He’s a way better mechanic than I’ll ever be with seemingly no fear of any project.

    Maybe when the new member option gets up and running things will pick up.

    Something.....Anything?

    Well, this winter I have:

    • Fixed the oil galley plug leak and the sticky shift linkage on the XS11SF.
    • Fixed the leaky master cylinder on one of the XS750SF's
    • Rebuilt a leaking clutch slave on the Vmax
    • Just finishing the frame swap on the V-65.


    ______________________________

    On deck is new fork seals on the Vmax, along with new tires and bearing service.


    No problems to kibitz about.........
