1974 FLH Electroglide

[LB]

Recently got a start on getting it all out of the boxes, cleaned up and started the reassemble. I'll post some pics a little later. Heads, jugs are out being redone, tins are at the painters. So far its made it to a rolling chassis. Nothing runs like a shovel!!!!

I want to keep it as 74'ish as possible, not too sure on the front chrome hud cap yet, its starting to grow on me a bit. I'm thinking of putting an old police style solo on it....maybe, color will be Lighting yellow. I just Like yellow crusiers..not a color you see too often. Also a color that stands out more coming down the road!!!

I like the hub cap and the idea of the police style solo seat as that should be a very comfo ride. Are you gonna set it up on a pogo post, seat prings or just flat on the frame rails?

Yellow though - hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Whatever you want.

Thinking more along the lines of seat springs.

Was able to back in the shop today (finally). The new pistons and reworked jugs were picked up late yesterday. I decided to go with solid lifters. Got most of the new / reworked parts installed. The heads will go on next. The tins are at paint now, with any luck I'll be riding in a week or two.

Sense the orginal pipes and slipons were trashed, I'm going to put some baffled drag pipes on it to start until the wallet grows a little thicker and I can get the true dual exhaust and rush slipons I want.
