And I still haven't striped the gold bike  you've striped and rebuilt before iv touched mine   :-[
They look like the same rear shocks as mine they improve the handling no end.

Nice work, and as you say looking good...

What's the small black box above / left of the Voltage Regulator. Fuses? I have a K2 and pretty much a 'hole' there.

That's looking really good billy and nice to see such a good bike coming together. I'm really envious of projects like this on here as I can't even get near to working on anything I've got currently.

You're going to have a very nice bike to ride when finished with all the hard work, well worth it I think.

is there any chance you can take a pic of the brake arm under the swing arm. I am not sure if i have put mine on wrong.  i have it at 11 o'clock leaning back toward the rear wheel, but i feel it may be the wrong way as this doesn't give much travel before hitting the swing arm.
thanks Billy

I'm thinking it should be around the 7 oclock position and the rod routes under the rear axle.

I should really read things more than once. I assumed you were talking about the arm on the brake plate.   ::)
