Found an old foto of when I bought her back in 1997, a bit of a chrome barge. There were receipts for £2k worth of live to ride and chrome. I cant remember what attracted me I liked the colour but I swear I never noticed all the live to ride emblems which were stuck everywhere, until about a month after! I think that when you buy a Harley its the engine your buying into either it works for you or it dont and until they 

"rubberised" the engine each one was different.

Oil Tank

Fitted oil lines today... OK but look a bit tatty but will do to start up the engine, and make sure all is OK looking to use braided lines eventually, Cant get the rear OEM brake line to sit properly so have ordered braided one and brake light banjo to tidy it up.

Re aligned the rear muddy, mounted the brackets upside down!
fitted the oil tank and sorted rear exhaust bracket.
Just waiting for some 90 deg elbows to re route the oil lines over where the battery will sit.

Krome Werks pipes will stay as they are only a year old! But looking to have a 2 into 1 with old school trumpet silencer will be using a side mount no. plate which just needs slight modification because of muddy stay.

Almost there

View from the cockpit, Just the oil tank to fit and run the oil lines then the wiring.
