Slowly saving up for a REAL paint job. What I did to the fender and side cover is just a temporary fix.

Yup, the bike looks good enough right now. I'm hoping to get the mechanics and electrics all good then ride all summer and possibly through the fall/winter as well. It depends if it snows or not.
I was planning on a set of red bodywork, which I already have and another set in blue. I can do that with my school's autobody shop! And I have chance to get another set of body work.
But right now, we wait. I need more money and waiting for my carbs.

I missed a few interesting eBay auctions. But I decided that they weren't really needed right now. It rides fine as is.

So I still have electrical problems. None of my lights works except the headlight. I hope that this will fix it.
And if that check panel control unit doesn't fix it, I will have to chase wires.
Man this past week has been so boring. Waiting game sucks! I wanna play a different game, dammit!
