I'm glad your rebuilding not restoring. While restorations are
beautiful it's better to ride them.

Being the cheapskate that I am , I have decided to rework original
rather than replace some of the parts on the 1939 H-D I'm rebuilding
(not "restoring" !) .

Too much of the original is gone , the AMCA calls my bike "a collection of
parts , not a motorcycle" . Fine with me , I can have every bit as much fun
on a collection of parts as I could on a "motorcycle" .
My main problem has been that many parts , especially for the tranny , are
no longer available .
I bought my lathe to make them ... as I'm doing with the springer bushings
.. And it's so much fun , to boot !
