MAN I GOT TO GET ROLLIN'

Motor in frame.

I got the motor in the frame so I can do some remounting. I need to move the col and find a spot for the battery to hide. The vertical oil tank has made it very tight looking and tight fitting.

Torqued down for the first start up.

Time to get this into the frame and see what's next: mounts, wires, and what not.

Wassup Rockers!

Slowly getting everything back together so I can test fit, mock up, cut, fuck up, fix, and get my bike back on the road.

Here's an over the head shot, and some new ink. c/o my brother Pete @ 7th St, Tattoo in St. Paul MN. Classy!

Good Head!

After dealing with some stupid wrong parts, o-rings, snail mail, and clearance issues...... I got the rebuilt head and big bore kit on. Took forever waiting for shit, but my buddy Lackluster came through on an overseas part for me and I spent the 23 hour day of FRIDAY the 13th hammering this out. Done I hope..

Trying to finish up the top-end, TRYIN'

I have been trying to finish up my top end. I got the new pistons in, the big bore cylinder on, and I was trying to fit my head on when I started having problems with the clearance between the cylinder and the head. I couldn't get the gap small enough, trust me I have all the right o-rings and even rechecked everything. TOO much room, just then I noticed that the new head gasket was almost oval on one side. W.T.F? So now I need to get another 750 head gasket so I can continue.  Sucks.
On the good side, Here's some blood for ya.
