Chicken came home to roost...

RD finally...

Now that the BSA is together and I'm shaking that shit down currently. Figuring out whats going to rattle off and whats not. In the meantime I'm getting ready to go full-bore on the RD. Got a line on some expansion chambers, tank is going to get some work done from JEr and the frame is getting prepped for paint.

Hood Thursdays

After the swap, and after the afternoon beers I decided to spend some time with my girl. We took our first walk down to the park buy our house and this is what we saw.

Kinda like a ghetto version of some beer commercial....Rad none the less

Chew on that

Since last night was spent wiring and firing the 'Grape'. Here is a little nod to BSA fans every where....

So close you can almost taste the grape....

Everything on except the foot pegs, tank and brake light......

Tank is being sealed and shortly after this I put on the pegs and mounted the brake light.

RD progress

Buttoned up the RD motor on sunday evening. Carbs are on to. Just have to paint the side covers and this shit is going back in the frame...

Dream Bike....

Saw this in the back of a truck on the way out from the swap. Parked right next to us. Mocking me.

Keep your pans, keep your knucks, Pass on the shovels. I want a triple 2....

Slightly further...

Got the welds sorted out on the sissy. Got that mounted and drilled the fender for the p-pad. I also got my rubber on, but haven't got around to getting the tires on the bike. The swap took up my sunday...

Spotted....

Spotted this local gem sitting outside the Canadian tire....Nice.

XS650 for sale

Smoking deal. Out of Heathen. Can't beat the price....Scoop it up if you have the monies and have a little chop for the summer

moving right along

Hood thursdays

Day late and a dollar short. Fuck it. Restored lightly customized Duc 250 single. Check out the chrome axle nuts and sweet rear sets...

Colour blind...

Tested out the colour way to see how it would go together....

Not fucking bad...

Framed....

Frame finally got prepped for painting. Went and got a nice coat of gloss black last night...

All ready to be put back together and ready to roll....

Treat ur lady right....

One of east vans greatest features may be that it recycles itself. The amount of older asian ladies that collect cans is astounding. This lady looks after our cans.

She comes in, takes the cans, tears down the boxes and gets rid of our trash.

Her wheel was pooched so we got to fixing it for her. Besides its not like we are going to take back our own empties any time soon....

Statutory Grape....

Got my tins done, showed Ty. He seemed pretty stoked on the whole idea....

Well, Well, Well

You finally scratched up enough money to get that brit project you've always wanted. You're going out tomorrow to grab the bastard and get started on building yourself the bike of your dreams. Well for you my friend I offer you these examples of what you may want to steer clear of....
