What a concept - A Girl Bringing Back Her 1966 Super Hawk

[sarals]

Here's the narrative.

She lit RIGHT OFF. 3/4 choke, and tump-tump-tump-tump... On one cylinder. She died a couple of times when I tried to advance the throttle, but she finally got to where she'd take throttle. And when that happened, the other cylinder woke up. Then, she's cold natured, I was able to shut the choke off, and - well - you heard what she does!

She needs lots of adjustment. Timing, carbs, etc, and I need to go over her to see if anything is leaking anywhere.

She needs wheels. She needs the back fender. She needs me to ride her!

Do you guys know how numb I am right now?????

O M G......!!!

Tom, my face hurts I'm grinning so hard!!!

Imagine the first time you ride. If you don't have a face shield you'll be picking the bugs out of your teeth!

Indeed an excellent feeling when it fires up after all this anticipation. Cheers, Chase

Great stuff! It's so satisfying when a pile of mechanical parts take on life.....

Magic!

Everyone, thank you - for everything, for the support, for the advice and encouragement!

BUT - this is by no means done! She is not finished, and she's quite a distance from that first ride. This is The Major Milestone, though, isn't it?

I have to say - She's got a quite a healthy bark, don't you think? I mean, in spite of all the little farts and pops she was doing, the exhaust note - I'm shivering!!!
