Re: The conversion has begun!!!
I gotta ask cause I've never really understood. Why would anyone own two of the same bikes (e glides in this case)
Not dissin', just wondering. I've got a couple of friends that though are different years are the same model and I could never figure it out.
That would be like me buying a SUT and an SUV H2 for lack of better example.
Just curious.
Mark

Re: The conversion has begun!!!
I think the fact that he's sending you pictures as he goes would make me trust him even more. The devil is in the details with the alignment, the linkages, the wiring, and there's always something that has to be made from scratch.
I knew many of us were into Vettes, but motorcycles too! My 1969 Triumph Bonnevile was bought new and 41 years and 28,000 miles later it's one of those toys I'll never get rid of.....till death us do part. The tank has had a repaint and I rebuilt the engine with slightly lower compression ratio pistons and hardened valves and seats in the head, but otherwise it's bone stock.

Jim,
That is beautiful. Until I got older (tried holding off....just couldn't) I never had appreciation for the older bikes.
That's really cool that it's been restored.
Nice...

Yes, it's cost effective.... I made a deal with the guy not to disclose how much I'm paying for the labor. When it's done, I'll verify the work and post everything.
Not trying to be evasive, just keeping a promise.
