Complete!

After 107 days and about $1500 worth of paint and parts, we are finally done!

We got the radiators back, day before yesterday...they were holding us up on finishing the project.  We sent them off to Myler's in Utah and originally ask for the straightening AND reinforcement.  They came back straight, but with no reinforcement...That's OK though, they will work just fine the way they are,  beats what they looked like when we got the bike!

Installed the muffler and silencer, which look awesome on the bike.  The longer silencer fits nicely with the two attach points, wasn't sure if it would or not.

All in all, the whole project went really smooth, smoother than we expected...a little more expensive than we expected though!

We still need to fix a couple things, rear wheel spokes being the hot item next on the list.  I would like to get each wheel hub powder coated, but that is not on the radar right now.

Here are the radiators prior to the straightening.


And back from Myler's all nice and straight!
FMF Fatty...Looking good!

And her she is!  Beautiful looking bike (to us at least, and that all that counts!)









Here is the first kick after the rebuild!



Thanks everyone for looking, I'll keep this page up with new riding pics/videos every once in a while.
