repair manual wanted

for those of you that have M.B.S. (multiple bike syndrome) and have the "silver wing" models.
as our sponsors also have supplies for those bikes and they are popular with the "wing" crowd.

A couple of new pics to show some of the work. Seat cover turned out good and will have to work on the passenger seat. Sporty mufflers look good but they hang down to low and cause the center stand to drag quite often.

Cleaned out the bowls on the carbs the other day and the left side was full of dirt and the right side was fairly clean. Still need a front tire before it is ready to ride.

Sorry about the large pictures.

Wow, looks great Al.

Not much more to do and not much more time (weather was great today!).

I sized your pics down, they were way too big.

Thanks Steve,

I missed a step and then didn't know how to go back without starting over. I've been able to ride it a little but need to get it legal before going going very far.

Temporarily finished with this project. Put plates on it Wednesday and fouled a plug before I could get it out on the street. Going to look around for another tank because this one has a seam that allows a very small ammount of gas to wet the edge. Then I can resume with a good cleaning and some paint to make all the body parts match. Monday starts baseball season and parking becomes a problem at work. The goal was to be ready to ride it by then and I made it. Of course Monday is going to be cold and wet with possible snow. Yea springtime.
