Test fitting

Tested the new handlebar. 

Looks the way I hoped it would. 

Need to narrow it a little bit more and weld it. 

Of course it will be wrapped in cotton grip tape in the end and i will remove the small speedo/tacho unit.

Z-bar part 2

Started to make a new handlebar for Lucy. Because the kids are a sleep I have to do it without power tools. Takes hours but the result is looking promissing. 

Just a ordinary z-bar with a slight down-angle and pullback that has the same width as the wide glide fork. 

Unfortunately I ran out of welding gas, again. I really need to get a better gas supply.....and need to clean up my shed...

Winter modifications

Testfitting a dash/speedo i found at a swapmeet/internet. 

Not sure if this is the way I want to go but it sure looks a lot better than the fatbob tanks i have now. 

I also have a heavely dented fatbob tank that is slightly narrower at the bottom, a original peanut, a alien gastank, a mustang 

Decisions decisions...

New stuff

Got some new parts in today. 

Since we moved I haven't had the luxury of a lathe so I had to ask my dad to fabricate some parts. 

The parts i recieved so far: seat hinge, seat spring mount, tank mount bungs, risers, bungs for the sissybar etc.

Now all I have to do is find some spare time to weld it al to the bike.

It Will be spring soon

Waiting for the weather to clear up so i can make my first kilometers since we moved. 

In the mean time i'm working on our new house. Last week i removed the old wooden shed and used it to keep warm while working in the garden. 

Next up: installing a new door in this wall so i can easely get the bike out of the shed. Of course there are plans for a bigger garage/shed in the future. 

Unpacking

Starten unpacking in the new shed today. 

First things first. Installing the work bench and shelves are first priority so I can unpack my tools.  

Almost ready to move

Finished packing in the shed last night. 

All the tools and small Parts are boxed, bikes are prepaired for transport and all the shelves are of the wall. 

Next week i can start unpacking in my new shed.
