Upholstery

The seat just came back from the local upholstery shop. The quality of the material and the stitching used is top notch! Just a few more details and this bike will be tearing up the pavement once again.

SS Engine Bolts

Today I changed all the old soft aluminum engine bolts with new SS bolts that I ordered from boltdepot.com. An impact driver is the simplest way to aid in removing the bolts without destroying them. However, when all else fails use a slightly larger philips bit in a 1/4" socket, hammer it into the bolt head, and use a ratchet to pursued them to come out.
