Thar She Blows!!!

[valhallan]

i got to hear my little project run today for the first time . it was only for a few seconds before i shut her off, but at least now i know i'm not wasting my time, and the real restoration work can start. i've got a few before pics i might put up. decided on a paint theme: The Raven, and no, it won't be all black. I'm in Baltimore. she's gonna be purple and chrome. LOTS of chrome.

Ahhh... It seems like yesterday, the first time that I heard mine run after some extensive work. Is that not a great feeling? Congrats!!!

Hmmm...that's funny...whenever I finish a repair job and the bike starts up, my main reactions are shock and relief...

LoHo,
Good one! You and I must have gone to the same school of repair.
