Kicking this off early as E-R is busy, Zank is busy with the new family addition (congradulations, you THREE!) and I'm out of here in a few for my lovely wife's 40th b-day - she still looks like a kid!
crawling through two very involved full touring packages.

Just finished another one, played around with a Land Shark esque paintjob. My painter did the base coat and clear and I took it in between to go at it with the airbrush.

Both fork legs show lateral cracks on the underside of the bend at the brass filled vent hole. Didn't show until I stripped the paint. This frame and fork came in for a repaint, and I'm glad I caught it. Patina is nice, but be sure what you're riding if it's 30 years old. Things wear out.

I've been busy all summer riding, instead of building. Good thing its not my day job.

Now that the weather is starting to turn, its time to head back into the shop. Oh it feels good to fire up the torch again.
