picture time
so far the jb weld is holding just fine. i didn't try to start the bike last night after i put it back together because i was too tired to deal with anything else that happened. i got some pictures of it though. the side of the tank reads "Malvivente" which is Italian for lowlife, criminal, hoodlum etc.

One of those builds
You ever have something that just fights you EVERY step of the way? this bike has been that something. i just replaced the left side head because the left side water jacket in the cylinder head broke. so i replace it then start putting it back together... now the RIGHT side head is starting to fuck with me, the water jacket was leaking, fixed that, one of the intake bolts started to strip, fixed that. started the bike up and had a high idle, figued it was because the intake runner o rings were original and collapsed. so i pulled the runners off, replaced the o rings and in the process of putting that back on... the fuckin' left side runner snapped at the flange. its sittin' in the vice jb welded in place. it probably won't hold, but it's worth a shot. i'll probably replace it this week.
