The yellow pipe is translucent, fitted so I could see what was happening with the fuel going into the carbs.. the carbs having given me a lot of problems. With that resolved, could fit black hose I suppose. The battery is a Motobatt AGM, which comes in yellow. Doesn't bother me, its hiding in plain sight lol. But if I decide it needs to change, could eventually find a suitable black one. Though the battery mount is made to fit the Motobatt only. BTW I have, or had five projects I wanted to finally complete this year, the Guzzi was number two, so now on to number three.
The Wideglide frame can take a Sportster engine, but it needs some work to do so. Next year I will upgrade the Norley with a better front end, but got other bikes to work on first.. including my MHR.
No worries, hoping I don't come across as a pain. I'm just busy working on a project where I was wanting to separate the colour of the bodywork in a straight line (like the Guzzi) and then have all the "mechanicals" muted silver and black..kinda like a "floating" body... I kinda like the purity of the look. In any case, gorgeous work, please share project #3
I'm loving the Guzzi as it sits now, great thread to read from the start, just glad you don't live next door to me, my wife WOULD divorce me !!
On my hols but will have a look at hide videos on my return. From the quick look I had they are as well made as the bikes. Chapeau!
