On Schedule

Still on schedule.  Started the engine yesterday, sounded good and no leaks.  Also re-riveted the carburetor intake stacks.  They had started to come loose.  Today I'll replace the left rear shock.  Eric had removed his Armstrong shocks for a more updated version.   So he gave me his old ones.  1960's technology, but original.  These shocks had been rebuilt by the same guy who rebuilt mine.  

 2 small rivets at the base of each stack needed replacement.



Ready for the season.



Starter motor shaft.  The round piece on the right slides on the shaft to the left.  This gets loaded up with dirt and prevents it from engaging the flywheel to start the engine.
