Friday shop time

Deuce decided that some sharpy art was the way to go with his dad's bike.  Chris did some work to the top of the tank and Deuce did the work to the sides.
Deuce put another personal touch with the sight gauge tick marks.  His Father is from Louisiana so the 1 and 2 gallon marks are for towns near where he lives.  This is one of the coolest things I have seen yet!
A play on words with a little Cajun styling.  Deuce and Chris roughed in the seat and will recover it soon.

Phil got the 3rd starter solenoid and Chris felt the need to screw with him.  Chris got dick tapped with a socket and extension later on so it all worked out!!
Zero Fucks given as usual.  Put the new solenoid on the Shovel and it started up and sounded great.  A little more adjusting and down the road we will be.
We finished up the CB175 and Chris took it out for it's maiden voyage.  It was cold as shit but it ran great and actually had great power for a 40 year old 175.
It was late, people were drinking and this kind of shit happens!  We pulled out the Triumph to put it on the rack and Chris wanted to see how it felt with a passenger.  It wasn't for nothing because it may have convinced Deuce that we need to tear this down and put it back the way it is.  Nasty 70's Chop!
Up on the rack and ready for tear down.
