Well, last night I got hit on the bike by a car that ran a red light. Happened about 1/4 mile from home, after a 300 mile ride out to the desert and back. Thanks to some cat like reflexes and fully armored leather gear, all I've got to show for it is a nice bruise on my leg... however my bike needs some work.
Everything is fixable, but I'm going to need some help finding some parts that I need to replace and am hoping there might be someone on here that can help me out by selling me what I need. Also, I've been invited to the Handbuilt Show in Austin, TX in April so I'm on a timeline to get it back to 100% before the show.[size=78%] [/size]
[/size]I need:[size=78%]
A good condition fuel tank (just the tank, don't need fuel pump, fuel cap, fuel level gauge) - I'm going to strip the paint and do the brushed finish, so it just can't be dented anywhere.
I also need a good condition valve/cam cover - paint and color doesn't matter as it will be powdercoated, it just can't have road rash.
If you have or know where I can find either of these parts it would help me out a lot. I'm checking eBay as well, but thought I'd ask here first.
