up some of the details I'd been putting off. Yeah, It's not
ground breaking shit, but it still had to be done.
First in line was the mount that I modified to secure the
peep mirror to the triple clamp. I never really liked the
shape and the powder coat was cracked an peeling off. I
flapper wheeled and sanded the paint, chrome, and copper
down to the raw aluminum, and shaped it with hand files
and sand paper. I finished it off with a wet sand and hand
Polish. I'll eventually send it out for chrome with a few other
bits I have.

Next in line was the nubs left behind from the
fender strut choppin. Here's what I started with.

...after some grinding.

...after hand files and 220/400/800/1000 sand paper.
...gettin ready for rattle can.

...after a couple blasts.

...and ready for assembly.




...and last but not least, my shop buddy Betty. She hung out
with me all day today.
