Oh, and found myself a motorcycle jack at a garage sale this weekend. Makes working on them a little easier when they are higher off the ground. Attachments:

I went ahead and put in rear turn signals. Could not beat a set of four bullet amber lights for .99 at Goodwill. Attachments:

Ok, ok! One last thing to mock up... its the rear fender. Thank you very much Tango911 for the fender I think it will work. I'm using a CB750 front fender and will remove the fork bracket and determine how long I want it then cut down. Then its tear down time again. Attachments:

First step for tank, filler primer. Then go back over any noticeable problems. Hairy bondo for hump, then sand down. Attachments:

Found some major galling on one of the lobes. It must have been the one sticking up when it sat for years. Time to look for a better one. Attachments:
