Beautiful Steve! Can't wait to see it with the fairing. Lou

Thanks, Lou - and thanks again for your advice on the project.

Finished it yesterday and took it up to the power station for a photo shoot. Drew quite a crowd...

There's an album on my Flickr site: https://www.flickr.com/photos/loudbike/sets/72157645041415149/

Lot's of drama at the end of the project - not the least of which was the discovery that the oil cooler had developed a small crack where the output fitting is soldered to the frame. I had used a later Paso cooler (with the different frame and bullnoses on the sides. When I originally installed it, I had to do some work to use the adapters Jensen sent me and now that I've switched to the correct, earlier IPRA cooler I can see why the early one is the right design for the TT1 fairing mount. The later cooler simply can't tolerate being suspended by the output fittings.

I also switched the lower fairing fasteners to the C-Panel items from skybolt.com. What nice pieces..

And now the bike's off to Miami (hopefully Friday)...

Beautiful Steve. But I sure hate to see that bike and that assembly of parts hit the streets of Miami. MikeV

Lucky new owner!
