Not pretty, but those old 2 stage Kellogg compressors are top notch. Good eye!

Sand paddle mounted











New front to match.




Repacking the silencer




Forks off for rebuild. I did pull the triple trees and packed the bearings and reinstalled.

I'll do the step by step stuff later on, as there were quite a few steps missed here. I have all the pictures, just not the time right now to tell the story. But here are a few complete teaser pics.









I still have a few things left to install, when parts arrive. Fork seals, fork guards, Devol aluminum rad guards, works connection frame guards, reed spacer, v force3 reeds, airbox mudflap, and the wiring for the headlight. It is running and riding again though.

Love that sound!

So why the sand paddle? Hitting up some dunes?

That sand paddle hooks up amazing in loose snow.

Looks like my photobucket has exceeded bandwidth, so will be down for a month. Here's a youtube video of starting it up cold. Hadn't been started prior that day... first kick!

I put a pair of Protaper Pastrana FMX /ATV Race bars on last night, along with a TAG riser, of forgotten height  :?. I haven't ridden yet, but it feels very comfy sitting on the bike. I think it will make a big difference once I get riding. I was able to use all factory cables, hoses, wiring.

Looks good. Those protaper bars are nice. I have a set on my streetfighter project!
