is finally at home in the garage after a couple of years sitting in my friends back yard. He helped me to put hard luggage on it a couple of years ago when my brother was doing funeral escorts and I was hoping to do them too. A little politics and my brother got out of it so the bike just sat.
He said it was in pretty bad shape so I was imagining all kinds of rust and stuff. It's mostly cosmetic so next year I'll spend some time getting Sam back on the road and maybe doing something other than restoring it back to it's normal look.
Sam is still sitting on the trailer in the garage so I can't really take any pics of it. I probably won't be getting him off until next week while I study exactly where to put him. With Baby, Big Girl, Red Wagon, and Pedro, the 2-car garage is pretty full!
I'm trying not to get ahead of myself with planning stuff for this bike. My goal is to get it running again then work from there. Larry says I should part it out but no body seems to want these parts so I think the bike has more value whole. If I can't get it running that's another story but I'm looking forward to the challenge!
