Spring busy

When the weather changes for the better, you have to multi-task. Lawns mowed, garden is plowed and planted. Canoe is fixed and waxed. Trailer is ready for the canoe and Kayak. Harley is ready for next weeks "Old Dogs on Hogs" Ride.
I did get some things done on the F1 in the interim. Installed the steering column to check if the new wheels and tires will fit on the front. Don't have the tires yet, but soon I hope. The rollers I have on it now fit fine and are 28 inch in diameter. The new wheels and tires will have the same diameter and offset. Should fit fine. Also mounted the stainless running board steps.
Was going to put the bench seat back in to see how much room I will have behind it now that the gas tank has been reposition under the bed. Found the drivers side of the mounting hardware was all broken down. Took the frame and seat apart and worked it back in shape with a hammer and a little welding and grinding. The two mounting sides are in primer now and still have to sandblast the frame and prime it. Looking to mount the stereo system and battery behind the seat.
Harley ride to Texas and Louisiana starts next week. Looks like we may be riding in the rain again.
(But who cares.)
