Friar-Tuck:
  Looking Good Coop!
Not only do you get to put together another bike, You get to get a kid out in the dirt!
  Thank you ThrottleJunkey for making the offer to Coop.  That's what makes this place the best little site on the web.

Coop:
How much would you want for that pipe ThrottleJunkey? This one is almost crushed right before the silencer, I am worried how that will affect performance.

The bolt kit is very nice! Definitely worth the $20. It was much nicer assembling the cases instead of the stripped phillips screws. The kit came with the case bolts, ignition cover bolts, clutch cover bolts, water pump bolts, and reed bolts.

Here's a crappy cell phone picture of the finished engine. The cylinder and head are way brighter than the cases, but it's ready to run. I called Nick today and told him his engine was done and he said "YES!". I have the frame sanded and will paint it tomorrow (just rattle can, money is tight) and then I get to start putting it all back together.


ThrottleJunky:
Coop, The pipe and silencer aren't for sale.   PM me your shipping address.

Coop:
Wow thank you! Really. Nick is so excited about riding this bike. It's great. He gos to church camp next week but tried to cancel because he knows his bike will be done  :-D .

Coop:
Frame is painted. It's lighter than I wanted (almost looks like shiny primer) but I couldn't find the shade I wanted in a rattle can. Once the new steering stem bearings come in I will start putting it back together.
