I was thinking in the $5,000-10,000 range would be safe. If I had to put a real value it would be a crazy number. In the line of $15,000-20,000. In reality a number so high no one would pay it, since I haven’t even thought of selling. However if someone pays that amount you could get another one and fix it up.

Rick,

What do you think is a good value I should put on my bike?

A little late on this video, this was the maiden voyage. It wasn’t pretty just waiting for it to get warm again, so I can get the bike out. It’s hard to ride when the wind chill is below 0!!!!!

I don't know what happened on the pics. I posted them correct and they also turn right side up when I click on them.

All the parts are finally back!!! Now the reassembly begins!

Well a little progress has been made. I had hoped to have it done by now so I could make Portland. It's looking less likely. The powder coat was suppose to take 3 weeks. It ended up taking 8. The tank and fenders were sent to paint 4 weeks ago. They said it would take 3 weeks. The spokes I ordered from Wayne ended being to big so I had to send them back and still waiting on the new ones. Which I would have known sooner had the powder coat been faster.

I'm trying to climb the molehill but the top keeps getting further away!! I think if I had all the parts, no interruptions and no problems, I could have it together in a day. That seems to be asking to much sometimes!!! It doesn't help that I will be gone for 2 weeks this month. I guess next year is calling my name.

Just got the chrome back. I was like a kid at Christmas unwrapping it all. Now just waiting on the paint and powder coat stuff.

Had a little delay. I had a place that was going to do the chrome I spoke with them in December. I called to take the parts to them last month and they went out of business. So I had to find another place. I called and emailed over 10 places only 1 place responded. I guess people don't want/need the work. So I dropped off the parts at the chrome shop today. They said it will take about a month.

I will take the other parts to get powder coated later this week, I hope. So probably another month plus before any more progress. My goal is to make it too Portland this year.
