I basically just stripped the rest of the parts off of the frame. This leave me to be able to throughly clean the frame and possibly touch up paint if necessary....

The clouds part, a single beam of light shines down from the sky revealing the freshly painted tank and fenders and chorus of angels sing in the background. Alright, that didn't actually happen but it...

This post is an update to previous post. Starting the brazing over was a step in the right direction. We used a different set up for the blow torch to get it even hotter. We used a setup that allowed...

There was no way to mount the rack so I had to make a way. My father has a lathe in the basement that I used to make little attachment bits that I can braze into the gas tank and then screw a bolt int...

Nate was kind enough to sand blast the tank and fenders extremely quickly. I have pictures of the tank but not the fenders because we decided to take the tank home to fix a crack in the front of the t...

Yesterday my dad drove me to his friend nate's shop. Nate is the guy we will have paint my fenders and gas tank. We left the tank and fenders with him to sand blast and my dad will pick them up from h...

The Rocker Box had to come off first. We figured out that most of the bike uses Whitworth which is a British standard hardware. This is no longer used but since my bike was from 1970 they still used t...

Today my dad drove me to Colin's house to pick up a head steady. When we got home we took the motor out of the bike and brought it into the basement. We put it on the bench where I'm going to do the r...

The muffler is a racing type so it goes behind the frame and sticks out the back. It is a high muffler so it goes on top of the motor instead of underneath it. The muffler is a little rusty so we have...

Today my dad and I tried to get the motorcycle to run. I mounted the carburetor then checked if it had spark, compression and fuel. It had all three of these things. However, the motorcycle, for a rea...
