PM me your shipping address.
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Oh, yes sir I did.

The fuel outlet screws (banjo bolts? or whatever they're called) are M12 x 1.25, but I'm interested in the M10x1.25 screw that plugs the hole used to drain the tank. If I can use that one to pull gas then I don't need to deal with all the parts that sit on top of the flange.

I know I'll pull more dirt as well, but the fuel filter will take care of that and I'll just change it more often. [thumbsup]

Got some work done:

999 forks, wheel, rotors and (most importantly) spacer are all on and happy together.


Bit of bling for the clutch. 8)  But I still need to paint the frame... :-[


Made a new bracket for the gas tank. With the old one, the tank was resting only on its pin in the front. I made a new bracket with the pin slot a little higher so I could put a couple of rubber spacers under the front. [thumbsup]


The battery is still up front, but I think I'll move it under the tank.



Headlight, front fender, and a few more bits are on the way, I'll update during the week. ;D

Little update here, I got a M10 x 1.25 banjo bolt and a fitting to go with it. I'm taking the pump, filter etc out of the tank and pulling gas from the fitting.



Right now the original out reroutes straight into the return, but I'll eventually replace those with a couple of bolts. Or replace the whole bottom plate with something else....

Thanks and Thanks!

For some reason I've always liked the look of the V-Rod headlight and here it is.


There's also a trail tech vapor on the way and some more bits.

Almost there!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

What's missing: wiring, trail tech vapor, rear cowl + light + license plate bracket, front rotors and exhaust (the only thing I can't do  >:().

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.
