This is the bruise on my inner/rear/upper thigh from the oil tank cap hitting me while kickstarting. It feels worse than it looks. Decent hematoma. :?

FD,
Winston is looking very good , not so much the thigh. You need to see a Doctor. |

In regards to Winston, a little polish goes a long way! The bike looks great. However, the "ape hanger" handlebars have got to go. Spud

Here's the bike with the new correct handlebars, tires, mirrors, and switches. I cleaned up the wiring. NOW the bike is looking pretty original and it's handling is much improved.

Welcome back, Doc! I hope you and Miss Megan had a good time in Big Sky Country. Those handlebars look much better!

A definite improvement; the new tires and bars changed the whole attitude.

FD,
She looks perfect. Thanks for saving her as original. I'd be interested in her when you get tired of her. |
