    I've been so busy working on the Maxim that the Seca started to feel neglected so I took it for a spin.

    Here are some photos for your enjoyment.

    Very nice looking. She didn't get sassy for being neglected, did she?

    Original owners have an unfair advantage.

    I know Chris, those shocks need to be replaced. It's on my list that strangely doesn't seem to get shorter even though I'm crossing things off. :?

    One of the benefits of Cindy having her gallbladder out last Tuesday was it gave me lots of time to work on the Maxim since I really couldn't leave her alone for too long. I'm planning on Two Wheel Tuesday this next week (the 9th). I just created an event on FB.

    You should throw up some pictures on fb or here of the progress on the maxim, how'd the paint turn out?

    I may have a set of tank and side cover emblems around if you can convince me to find them ;)

    One of these tuesdays when you have off and are working on your bike/s, it would be awesome if i could bring over a few 6 packs of point brews and i can clean my carbs :D Then hit up the locker room fot TWT! :D

    You mean like these?? ;)

    Nice Seca. Are those original handlebars?

    Odd question I know, I have a Seca, new to me, and trying to figure out if the bars on mine were replaced. Yours are flatter and less pulled back than mine (which I like).

    Yes, those are the original handlebars. Maybe your Canadian model came with different bars. I don't know.

    Thanks. I picked up an original off ebay, so we will see. I think it will improve the ride as I have felt a little too far back on the bike with the current ones.
