This is what it was in 2015. Parked the girl early fall that year to do some upgrades! Been changing my mind on things ever since.

The first is how she looked after I brought her home and cleaned her up. The second is how she looks today. She will look quite different after emerging from hibernation this winter as well. Attachments:

Mine not long after I saved it. Not that that was an overly strenuous task, just some bent handle bars and folded engine guard. Mine also should emerge from hibernation a very different beast this spring.... I hope.

It will largely depend on if I actually manage to get the bike done and what it costs in the process.

Both of your rides TTE are sharply executed. Forgive my ignorance, but what are the cables running from the rectifier forward?

First Meanie I ever saw with an aftermarket oil cooler. Nicely done. I had the idea one day riding in the summer time. I stopped for gas and the fan came on as soon as I shut the bike down. I went in to pay and the fan was still running when I finished fueling up. I waited a few minutes and the fan stopped. When I jumped back on the road, I thought, well, the motors good and hot, ..... I'll bet the oil is bloody hot too ! So the idea sprang into my head. Sometimes ideas come easily, but making it a reality was a bit of a PITA. If I had it to do over again, it would not be very difficult, I know what to get and where to get it. It works really well (I installed oil temp and pressure gauges as well )

This pic is from 2015. I'm going back and forth between this and the Caddman. I like the added power, but I also like the idea of not having the air filter exposed to rain.

If this helps at all B46, nobody who has converted to Caddman and been out in the rain has reporting any problems whatsoever. None. Nada. I was caught in a few downpours myself this Summer and the filters were fine the whole time. Your call though. (Nice Ride btw!)
