Lumpy's chrome showed up Friday......

......so we wasted no time assembling his springer, and getting the bike up on its own two wheels.

The wiring is finished, and all systems are GO! Kinda like a blivit. What's a blivit? 10 pounds of shit, in an 8 pound bag....it all fit, though, with enough space left to do his electric speedometer hookup.

Now, if I can figure out the pesky hydraulic clutch setup, we're all finished. I suspect a hung-up puck in the cover. Before I installed the cover, I took the puck out, lubed the bore, puck, and O rings with DOT 5, to avoid this. We'll see on Tuesday, I'm swapping trans and rear sprockets for Kyle tomorrow.

And, Lumpy's bike, too.....

Lumpy's bike is just about done, too. We're waiting on his chrome - namely his top motor mount, and his front fork for his springer.....

Lumpy's sissy bar. I thought chrome, but Lumpy went with the same 80% gloss black as his frame is. Good call on his part. The sheetmetal is gloss black, with maroon 'flake panels, with a lot of different goldtone flakes mixed in, silver pinstripes. Motorsport Concepts did the spritz...

The cover I did for his electrical compartment. A little flash under the seat......

And....here's where we sit, waiting on the chrome front fork, so I can put his springer together. Check out the seat - I hammered out the seatpan, then the Haifley Bros. did the upholstery. They killed it....I can't wait to get this bike out in the sun, the paint just doesn't come through in the photos.

Deb's bike is doing well......

Deb's bike is going back together. Almost all of the bike is finished, save for color-matching her rear fender to her tanks, and some powdercoating of her front end parts.......
