not tryin to steal the thread,
oct 11, 12 and 13. go online and get tickets at barbermotorsports.
museum is open year round, vintage racing, swap meet and more
on these dates. well worth the time.

Small update posted here as I am less than crud at taking time to get pics/vid.

Pulled the lowers, 2.5 tons of aftermarket bobs, swapped the carbs for a good rack (not messed with, just flowing so will be removed again to go through), timing belts, water pump (as I had one), fuel pump (was leaking), and cleaned half a million electrical connections. Played it lazy and didn't pull the fuel tank just yet. Wanted to know it was worth it first, so popped a hose from the fuel pump inlet to a 5 gal jug. She's a keeper! Fairly impressed with it at this point.

Still a good bit to go, but so far, everything's working as it should and it's a smooth runner (mind you the carburetors still need attention). Haven't serviced the final drive or touched the suspension. brakes and bearings in the least.

I am going to have to pull the starter and wake it up but shouldn't be a big deal......... Though I'm starting to REALLY miss having a center stand.
