81 R65 Restoration Almost Complete

It's almost done! Can't believe it, this has been a real work in progress guys. Complete ground-up restoration of my 81 R65 originally purchased for the wife. Don't know if I can let it go after all the work. Just got the heads and cylinders back from being rebuilt after 5 months.

Hi Mike;  I have a Bridgestone 100/90-18 Spitfire 11F that I got from  Tim Latus.  The tire is almost new and won't fit on my bike, it's an 18' and I need a 19'.  (I hate to just let it set and get old)  If you could use it, it's yours.
