I want a million photos like this one hanging in every room of my house.

Phase 1 of my Monster project completed! There she is, in all her glory… waiting for the ignition switcheroo, part replacements and upgrades in the foreground.

I’ve wrangled up master cylinders, replacement forks off a 748 (stock ones have no adjustment), a second caliper and two rotors to convert it to a dual front disc brake system.

After hooking up the new ignition I turned the key to my new bike for the first time. All the idiot lights came on, and I hit the ignition just to see if she would turn over. So far, so good. Tonight, draining all the fluids and trying to fire her up.

These forks remind me of the ones Jared Johnson from Holiday Customs put on his epic XS 650 (one of my favorite bikes ever).
