Not much of an update

Mr Bossman got a new toy...

We infected the Bosnian...

I made a table and lamp...

And the next project is lined up.

The Billings Estate Vinage Motorcycle show

 I've never seen on of these Yamahas, I want one.

 It's a single cylinder 600cc dual carb and dual exhaust,  neat.

 Nice velocity stack plug!

 Look at the brazing on the frame.

 Note the speedo goes the opposite way. And bottom, a tire iron kick stand.

Here are a few pics of it done. I'll upload a video as soon as I can.

At last!!

As we left our heroes last at the Bat-cave...

My brake piston was seized so we rebuilt that. 

Having test ridden the thing I can tell you that even with the stainless braided line this thing stops like a dump truck.  I would definitely recommend swapping the front for something with dual disks. 

Here is the holder thingy I was making.  By the way, I found the little f@#ker today.  Figures.

And here it is, Finished.

Note, there is a number between the letters OC and D on my plate.  That bugs me a little.

I'll post a video after we go for a good ride.

It's alive!!!

The monster is awake.

That was Mr. G giving it a try.  Mr. Double J noticed the clutch is slipping , Mr. G is confirming that.

Mr. D also had a go at it.

I had a sticking throttle when the wheel was turned to one side.  I removed the push cable and lubed the pull cable and now it returns well.

I had to take out the carbs to do so, I don't have the steady hands or the dexterity to work in that confined space.  Stupid me, when I tried to put the damned things back I had them backwards.  I got  frustrated until I realized what I was trying to do.  The first thing I did when I figured out what a nimrod I can be is look around to make sure Mr. Double J didn't see me.  I know he's going to read this, and that's OK, but fixing it before he found out was important.  I have a way of frustrating Mr. Double J with my nimrodedness.  I don't blame him, I can do some real head scratchers.

Now what that is sorted out I have a clutch issue to deal with.  I have the one out of the spare engine, I'll check its tolerances and if it's good it'll go in the bike.
