only problem we had, was "CONVERSATION", or rather Lack of it!

heck i had to coax him into telling me who he was and what he does for a living!

all of you guys who know Thom, personally, know just what i'm talking about!

I know just what you mean, JT. It took us several hours to get Thom out of his shell. Heck, the only time he really opened his mouth was to put in some DQ.

Momma's front end is in pieces too. I was gonna make the lowering kit for the forks but found a good amount of rust and pitting right above the lower triple tree. I am waiting for the new tubes to show up. The tubes are two inches shorter than stock.

 

I did upgrade the bearings in the steering head though. Went from the ball bearings that fall out when you take it apart to a set of tapered roller bearings.

 

I did polish the upper triple and repainted the lower triple. Still need to polish the lowers and caliper.

 

Hope yer ole lady is doing as good as she can do and that your mind is still in one piece.
