Polishing carb tops.......my Dremmel has become my NEW FRIEND! :clapping:

There are all kinds of Dremmel bits that make the job of removing spots and cleaning up the aluminium a snap! 10 minutes with the Dremmel and a brass wire wheel bit and all of the carb tops already look polished! :yahoo:
 
Finished putting body parts back on the bike, and getting it road ready. Ordered a set of iridium plugs and a new K&N Filter after I cancelled my Amazon order. He still had not shipped by this morning and I just dont have time to wait on a******* like that. Then he had the sack enough to tell me he was still within time limits for shipping out and denied the cancellation. I called Amazon, my money will be back in the account on Monday, and I am done with that nightmare. The K&N was pricey but it has the crankcase breather attachement, fits better in the space provided, will not require element replacement, and I will actually be able to use my tray too. The K&N will be in tomorrow morning. You just cant beat Oriellys for some things. Cant wait to get on to road testing.

I have a customers Honda Shadow to service today so I am a happy camper, quick easy 200 dollar day for me..Win Win!

Used it as a part delivery vehicle. Gerry now has the handle bar clamps he needed and I think I need to buy some new braided fuel lines...
yeah just a heads up on the braided fuel line if you buy the anodized covers that hide the clamps most likely will leak just spent the better half of a Saturday proving this point and had to repaint engine(and Yes they were as tight as I could get)

After looking at the set Gerry bought, he shamed me into realizing I need to buy some new ones. :eek:ops

Took it and the backrest on a mini tour through semi-northern Indiana. Back south to Carmel, and watched 8 million ways to die in the west. Hopped on the bike, rode through some springles, then back to the garage. Only 180 miles, but nice weather. Stopped at a farmer's market north of Westfield at 256th and US-31. I'll tell you what, I had a Old Fashioned loaf, on a wheat bun, with swiss, tomato, onion, pickle, mustard, and mayo. It was the best cold cut sandwich I've ever had.

Pulled the heads off the 1100 getting ready for my next project.
:popcorn: and what would that be?
The 1100 heads with early 1000 cams are going on the 1200.
