First meal in over a decade  Did about 11 miles. Still have some adjustments to make (rear brake lever height, shifter height, left switch housing rotation, re-rebuild the carb, replace the fuel cap o-ring, do a service, find and install a windscreen)...but overall she's strong and seems pretty solid! | ||

Nice! Interesting colors by the way. | ||

Those are the factory decals for the Defender bikes - they built 12 of them as police bike prototypes, and they were used at the 1998 HD races and events in Milwaukee. The decals are red and blue reflective - very 90's. | ||

"Those are the factory decals for the Defender bikes - they built 12 of them as police bike prototypes, and they were used at the 1998 HD races and events in Milwaukee. The decals are red and blue reflective - very 90's." Very cool! If I love anything it's shouty 90's colors on a sports bike. | ||

And they DO shout, especially in camera flash or oncoming headights....  | ||

Very, very cool to see you put this bike back on the road! Good for you! | ||

Looking very cool! Hopefully you find a screen and get all the little things fixed so you can ride the dust of it and enjoy  | ||

Screen is on its way as well as a fresh seat. Waiting for some crappy weather to do the adjustments and carb rebuild (nice weather = mountain biking and yardwork). Evasive part is the right side lower...but that doesn't keep the bike from running, so that's a back burner piece anyway. |
