^^ Wow... those both look pretty slick. Mine's going to take a bit of work to get close to that - the paint's more chipped and oxidized than the photo I posted shows. I'm having my mechanic brother in law talk to a few body shops to see what a proper paint job might cost.

I'm breaking things down between posts and am cleaning out the front hub right now, so far so good there. I have run into one thing I wasn't able to figure out, though. The brake levers have no nut or screw to loosen them, at least that I can see. Anyone know how you get those off?
