Re: Rat repair.

Spent yesterday cleaning the garage so i could unbury my wife's bike, we have a bike trip coming up and want her to be able to get a little saddle time in before we leave, plus reorganizing was badly needed just to be able to walk in there..

Today i got the engine fired up, timed and readjusted the carb, then re torqued the intake manifold bolts after it got warmed up.

Then i got back to working on my bed filler tube cover, i have a knack for wanting to over complicate things, came up with the idea to have the cover flanged all the way around including using some old bed material for the flange along the bottom, still have a ways to go yet but i have the cover bent and fitted, now i need to make the flanges and get them tacked and welded on, time consuming......
