    The old man is going to have a heart attach when see what I have done to his bike. BTW, he has owned this since it was new and it has never say outside over night.

    The list of things I have done is huge:
    Paint, fix dent in tank, Polish lots of stuff, Brakes, brake lines, exhaust, jetkit, paint, polish more stuff, tires, oil, filter, gear lube, fix tach, fix speedometer, battery, fuses box, rear brake switch and on.......

    It was too bad considering the bike basically sat for 10 years.

    The original exhaust was in sad shape ~ lots of rust through the entire thing so it went in the trash.
