Just about any MC salvage will have one.
"There can be no divided allegiance here.  Any man who says he is an American,
but something else also, isn't an American at all.  We have room for but one
flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is
the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907

Shiny and new - well, shiny and fresh - hard to have a new 30 year old tank.  Steel, white and ready to go. 

Also - engine guy found rectifier for $20.00 - down with that.

Finally, the FedEx man came, and GD postal came through as always. Have a box of goddies to sort through from the 70 fest, and opened up the box from the FedEx man today as well. Here are the photo updates.

At this point, just waiting on the frame and need to resolve the front fender / rear fender. There will be lots of minor stuff to get, but should have the bulk of it all excluding the frame at this point. Also got the stickers ordered up.

Need to work on the starter situation. Good folks at the 70 fest in phoenix last week gave me some pointers and I will be leaning on them some more for info in the future. Thanks to all that have input, etc. It is appreciated.

Had ordered this up a bit ago. Delays on my end but we are back on track now. Got it this last weekend.

I have no real skills when it comes to welding, bending, making, etc. But I can appreciate the skill and talent that it takes to make something spring from nothing. The guy that makes these frames clearly has mad skills and talent.

Thought I would post some detail pictures in case folks have not seen one in "the raw" so to speak. Not only is the fab work detailed, but he includes some stuff that will be needed so it is a smoother build.

Anybody thinking of buying one will not be disappointed. Worth every penny.
