The mufflers are installed and looking good. I didn't fire the bike up so I could hear how they sound, but that'll happen. My main concern right now is getting the tractor running.
I degreased the cylinder head and valve cover and then tried to call the machinist. When I dialed the number it said it couldn't go through. I had talked to TVI earlier in the day about finding a shop and he said the only one he knew about was the one I was trying to call. After failing to get through, I sent him a message and he sent me the correct number and the actual name of the place. I called the correct number, but no answer. Looks like there's going to be a lot of leg work trying to get the machine work done along with rounding up all the parts.
I did get the lawn mowed for the last time of the season and I picked up the radiator for the tractor. That's looking like it's going to be more than a simple fix as well but finding a radiator repair shop would probably be about like finding an automotive machine shop. I'll give it a go and see what I can do.

the tank ast is perfect
ReplyDeleteI had nothing to do with that, but the bike does look pretty good now. The only thing left is to install the electronic ignition. Maybe new fork seals and springs come springtime.
