Nice to see ya' "back"...

So, observation...

It's FB's Dream...

But I notice the passenger seat has been removed...

She gonna pilot this one? Or is her dream to see you back on one from the passenger seat of her Spyder?

And, I can't WAIT to see what your creative mind does to this one!!!

Kaiser... I sold the Valk in 03....good to get one again!!!!!


Took the fairing back off....wanted to be sure everything fit up right. cooldude...., drilled 3 holes in it to mount the 'Neutral, turn, and Hi beam indicators from the head light ( had a heck of a time finding a 5/8" hole saw).  Removed the radio door, and the 4 speakers... took it to the painter to be painted up.  Cut and added wire to the 3 indicator light harness wires ...solder... liquid tape... then heat shrink.... so they will reach the inside top of the fairing.  Will loom the wires and run them when the fairing gets back.  
  I need to get lights in the shop.... gets DARK out there at night.

Now that FB has her own bike.... I decided to solo this one out..... never had one solo'ed. cooldude
