Dude,
My wife has been on my a** about spending time with my bike. But she also understands. I just make up for it by taking my wife out on the weekends. I wish I took pictures of what it looked like before I started. Total Baskets case. Broken rad. shourds and side plates, bold tires rusted up pro circuit pipe(that was for a kx250). Broke pipe mounts, No grips on the bent bars, Stained gas tank, All the suspension bearings were shot. Broken reed, leaking fork seals, I think that use to be a chain and two spockets that were on my bike. And a lot of missing or mis matched bolts and on top of all that it was cover with dirt/mud. Things are looking up. I have been working on this bike just about every weekend sents May of 2004. My goal is to have it ready for a vintage bike race coming up this year.
