I'm motivated, just have to wait between glass/resin cures.  Once I get the left seat and the controls and wires run, then I have to fill the empty fuel tank and or at least 1/2 full so I can zero that new sender.  Then it's back to wiring, steering and guage mounting.  Just the little stuff that takes lots of time and doesn't look like you've done anything.

Then it's to the Honey-Do List(S).

not much progress today due to the 100* heat, but, i did get the inner valve springs put back in and set the timing at 36* instead of the break-in 31*. It revs clean and solid, i tried to figure out the electrical demons under the dash but had no luck :-\. oh well new gauges are in order. his a short vid after the spring install.

warning the vid is 2min of your life you will never get back :screwy:
