Thank you! I put a lot of thought and hard work into her. Everything was planned and is there for a reason. I wanted simple. To me less=more. I had a guy stop and look at it when I was taking photos. He was like "wow, I cant believe you put a Yamaha motor into a Kikker bobber kit" I almost punched him in the face. Some people just dont know better.

Hey guys, new to the forum and just wanted to say hello! Hoping the wiring diagrams will end my charging system nightmares. Been two years in the making (part time) hoping to get some asphalt under her this season! Thanks!

Well here is mine. Just dug her out of the shed. Owned her for 24 years. Had no idea that there was such a site this. It is amazing what you all have done with your bikes!
I have her in the garage now, trying to figure out what I want to do with her. First step is get her running again, then I will go from there. You all have givin me a lot of ideas! Thanks

Welcome aboard, glad you found us. Looks like a 77 or 78 standard with aftermarket shocks and mufflers?
