Scott,
Bike looks great. You've done very well with it. My plans were just to go through mine again and do any needed maintenance and repairs, give it a good clean up then help it find a new home but you've got me reconsidering letting it go. They're great bikes and mine is a good candidate for a complete restore. I just need time, and more space. If I can get life slowed down a bit, my plan is to build another barn/workshop in the backyard but it's not gonna happen before spring of 2016.
You mentioned resleeving on the frame steering stem, did you do this and what info can you give me about it? I have a lot more confidence with the steering stem water routing now than I used to, having learned to just patiently take good corrective steps to work through it.
I love the white side plates. Not sure if you are going to run into this or not, but I've had some difficulty with the left side panel fit around the silencer. And you also have to watch the silencer alignment as mine was pointed a little inward and came into contact with the sprocket and chain when landing some bigger jumps.
Love the pic updates, keep them coming.

Nice find, I thought at first glance it was the one in Clinton, OH that ended on EBAY yesterday but it is not.

1 bid and sold at 1700. A pretty good price. Seller's name was Don and he said he raced AMA and AHRMA Post Vintage.
