Nope, doesn't have the right stuff in it yet - I just plopped it on the end of the crank to take the pic. Building the clutch this weekend, I have all the right parts. I am actually still having thoughts of putting the 102C back in, though, I really had that one dialed in nicely. It just needs new bushings and major cleanup, so I know it will be a project to get it done. I have a fortune tied up in weights for the Comet, but I might just do the Cat clutch up and use that until I get the Comet done.  Wig |

Couple pics, finished the handlebars and put the NOS controls on and the original hand-grips. I haven't glued the hand-grips in place yet, trying to figure out how to get them to be jet black again. Any suggestions?? Wig   |

Don't worry, Dave, I will just carry my .357 with me so if he gets too close I can pop a couple of caps in his direction. That should discourage him. Anyway, he'll only be looking at my snowflap so he can't do much damage back there! ;D Wig

I just found these photos in an old family album - these were taken in March of 1986, my son was 2 years old, this was pre-fat years - I was a hot young buck at 41 (those were the days!) The old Rupp was in pretty good shape then, this was a year before I sold it to the guy that ran it into the ground!!!   |
