Thanks guys. As far as the design goes.......... I don't care much for it but I got it pretty cheap and it was something different to build. I prefer a chopper or bobber.

She is a tough one , just came up on your work. If I'd been sooner , I could have helped a little , first by warning you off the kit!

 It has a very nice panhead engine as all three of this manufacturers offerings. It is a struggle and m/c knowledge helps. I like choppers and bobbers so this one, heavy with body parts , looks slow sitting still!

 Dump the c/a and go with 5 minute epoxy. I added numerous parts that are not in the kit , bars,grips foot controls , springs and some chrome vinyl to help out. I also trimmed off the boattail fenders on the bottom for a smoother look, s/s tube replaced the w/m exhaust as well, cables and a hand clutch/shifter makes it a little more believable.

I'm afraid I hafta say it looks real good in green:

Worth the effort for an interesting m/c.
