[QUOTE="krakum1967, post: 122640, member: 3691"] I cut the mount area off the stock insulator. These will be used to pattern steel feet for the runners. This is supposed to happen, my welder had an emergency, so if he is still out of town, I will just use the standard or proven methods to get the bike on the road, and do changes come project time (winter). The manifold is on the way, the tubing will be here tomorrow. I am using marine grade rubber fuel filling tube for the runner rubber pieces. So as the things come in I will be doing tasks. I finished my inspection on one customer bike today, the customer tried the "I thought your labor prices included the parts?" trick. Yea....they looked over their notes which included a clearly outlined service invoice, and a blank parts invoice that was left as to be determined by the technical inspection. They need an RR, and a battery, they are waiting on the tire. I hate it when they do that. But I know budgets are tight. The third bike is starting tomorrow, I am tunbing and cleaning up an old Virago 920. I am also working on a later model 85 Virago 1000. Yea, fun stuff. So at this point the Virago 1000 and the GS650 are waiting on parts, I have one more bike to work on tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
