I think that whole bike started out as an injected LTD.

Rebuilding the Roadholders. 




  Kewl!

  I've been having subtle time with the Norton. New exhaust, new kick starter, new tires, fresh engine oil, gearbox, swingarm, and general tightening and 'checking'. A long ride to Quincy, California this summer, and a day run from there into Reno and back. Thanks for reminding me I need new fork oil as well.

While I have them apart, has anyone any experience in Roadholder upgrades? I'm putting in new seals and bushes as a matter of course and, perhaps, a set of progressive springs but am open to any other tried and true suggestions.

Well I'm excited to post here as you guys all know I'm not much of a wrencher..lol. Rob told me "you can do it grasshopper, you are ready"...

Ordered a bunch of parts for my DR....from a small dealer in Sooke BC...Kenco...love going in there. It's a ma and pop shop and the service is great and Ken is very competitive in his pricing. As a matter of fact he was better than most online prices. And the best part...I ordered Tuesday morning and some parts came in the next day but all of it on Thursday morning! Wow...They do online business too.

The stash...New tires, chain and sprockets, rear rotor, front and rear brake pads, and fork seals...



I did have some help...
