All brackets nuts and bolts cleaned and painted inner fenders clean and 1 painted

Need to buyrange paint, valve cover hold downs, steam clean or hottank valve covers, air filter and maybe carb.

LOL, I left varsol in them to try and break it down some so the bags were a little cornfusing I guess. I hope it didn't leak much. They actually look good now. I could see rocker indentions in that crud when I pulled them off the shelf.
A 600 carb is probably about perfect for what you have but running the 500 for now is fine. You probably wont notice much difference.
