Good thing BB is looking out for me.  That was definitely two steps from bad juju!  Fortunately a good coat of wax makes the evil spirits slide off .

Definitely.  That Glare stuff is work.  I believe in riding to eat not riding to wax .

Can't wait to see the finished motorsickle!

Can't wait to see the finished motorsickle!

Not finished (by a long shot).  But braved the heat for a couple hours this evening after ran out of anything else I could do.  Spent almost as long finding small parts and making a run to Ace Hardware for a few chrome bolts as I did actually putting anything together.  Was looking for anything that could go on that wouldn't be too much in the way of anything else that needed to happen later.  So hung the rear fender.

Am sure I'd looked closely before.  But until this evening not sure I'd fully realized how good is the color match between the powder coat and the original dark candy brandywine.

[Twolanerider]

Even back a few steps it's still a good match.  Stays that way in bright or dim light too.  Very pleased with that color score.

The detachable points #1 and #2 are all that will be on the bike.  No rear horseshoes.  It'll have a solo seat.  I've got a detachable luggage rack that will go to points 1 and 2.  Flat rack whose job will be to occasionally carry the old 95th Anniversary tour bag.  Have it's mate for a windshield bag also.

The "Stealth" rack seen in the above photos is entirely decorative.  Looks better than the standard license bar or bare horseshoe.

That's an amazing match....it's 'dead-on'.  What I'm more impressed with are how well you have your 'harley-tools' lined up on the wall behind the fender....and looks like one is all RED to match.  har.  spyder

Here's where I screwed up.  Trying to maintain a strict record of the details of this assembly.  But there's enough going on that something was bound to fall through the cracks.

I love this emblem.  Always have.  It's part of what I love about these bikes.  Was lucky to score one new to mount on the fender.  It needs to be there and needs to be seen as part of the bike.

Except it won't.  At least not very much.

[Twolanerider]

Because I'm not going to use the ugly wide light bar and the ugly high license plate bracket on a bike that's going to have such good low lines.  So the emblem hides behind the license plate.  Dammit....

[Twolanerider]

Ok, that was it tonight.  Full disclosure requires saying any non-chromed bolts seen above are only place holders waiting for more pieces to go around/on/to or against them.  Should your team choose to accept this mission this website will self destruct in 60 seconds.

Oh man~  just don't run a plate.  I know, that won't work for long, but, I'm feeling your pain on covering up the purty emblem.  Gotta be a way.  spyder
