Nice. Where are you in northern CA?

 

[Bonanza Bryan]

I'm located in Petaluma.:thumbsup:

Artichoke capital of the world? Location of the Arm Wrestling Championship?

I'm located in Petaluma.:thumbsup:

That's quite a ways from me. There was a REALLY nice Trail Bronc for sale there locally on craigslist recently.

Last time I was in Petaluma was coming home from Bodega Bay and saw somebody riding a newer Doodlebug through town at night on the main highway through town LOL

And here I was thinking it was just a town I drive through to get to Bodega Bay...

When were you driving through Petaluma. We have a classic car show up here in Honor of American Graffiti that was filmed at my high school. This year I'm going to see If I can enter my bikes.:shrug:

Last Feb 14th

They filmed some there too?

George Lucas is from here, and the story is based on my town.

The car show is usaly in May. I can't wait to show off My Bc 1300 SH and my MX 1510

7 or 8 years ago noted Bonanza collector Jarvis had a row of different Bonanzas at the Goodguys show in Pleasanton.

 

[Bonanza Bryan]

That sounds like he had some connections to get all that space.

Hey Bryan....Looks like you're moving along.:thumbsup:
BTW- Did you remove the "gussets" from the forks before painting them??

 

[mardyn]

I noticed there is an extra cross member on the upper frame (under the seat)... I've installed those on both of my 1200s as I believe it adds significant strength to the frame loops.

Also, what are you going to use for fork boots? Found anything reasonable yet?

[Bonanza Bryan]

The bike came with the fork boot's. And what do you mean by gussets. If you are talking about the welded plates on the forks then no I didn't want to screw up the forks. When I come across another pair of forks I will replace them.
