Well here it is. 1980 Special torn apart. So far I have lowered the front shocks 2 inches and shaved them down. Hopefully get the new dropped seat rails in soon. Sportster tank from lowbrow. Goin to have new gear ratio with 520 chain. Overhaul the motor with new gaskets. Tryin to figure out if im running bs 34 carbs or if ill upgrade to the bs 38s. If anyone has made the swap I would like to hear about it. Ill have to relocate the mountin bracket for the new 10.5 in rear shocks. Probaly gunna run pamco ignition. Tryin to figure out if Im goin batteryless or just runnin a small batt. I plan on fabricating my own wiring harness as well. Kick only and pullin the starter out and pluggin up that huge hole with a kit from mikesxs. Really goin for clean brat look, low weight and some more power. Also looking for some small turn signals that kinda look retro/vintage but havent found anything i like. I am open for all info about anything I've listed. Let me know what you think and im gunna try to keep update and the build goes on.
