I have been picking up more parts for it and have sold some other things. I sold the Twinstar to a buddy up in Indiana so his wife could learn to ride. I have know him for about 12 years and this spring he goes and has a massive heart attack and I won't get to see him any more.
I am down to three bikes now and it looks like they are going to be put on the back burner as we have moved to another house closer to my wife's parents. It's 50 years old and needs some attention so I get to work on it for a while before I can get to the bikes.
I did find a tank for the guzzi and am planning on painting it so I will post the progress of that. Right now I got it back from the Metal Cleaners which dipped it in acid to clean it on the inside and out. I coated the interior with Dragons blood from Caswell plating which is really good stuff.
Someone had welded in metal where the badge was mounted so I have filled that in with filler and will prime it this weekend or next.
