Re: ****The Better Half****

Installed the chain, guard and post from Slowriderz. I covered an old seat with some leather from an old jacket, It just doesn't look right so I am rethinking the seat. I had to install some old pedals for a test ride.

Going to the Shiny Side show/swap on Sunday and will be looking for seat and grip ideas.

I installed the rear rack. The new seat came, the older one was growing on me, though the wife prefers the new one. Guess which one will go on it LOL.

Picked up a set of cork grips, cut one to work with the grip shift, stained and started to shellac. Have to get a few coats on.

On the homestretch, grips, shifter and kickstand installed. Tomorrow I will put the right pedals on, some final cleaning and polishing and hopefully have time to get out and take some photos.

Finished, wasn't able to get to the spot I intended to to take photos, but took a couple next to my neighbors car.
