Looks great man! What breed of dog is that? Kinda looks like a Newf or a Water Spaniel, never seen them grey... Cool looking dog.

Cool! I almost got a Newf in college to take with me when I went canoeing. Then I realized he would have just swam next to the canoe instead of riding in it.
I've never seen a grey one, she's gorgeous!

Thanks. She is the best.
I’m looking forward to the summer to get her in the water

A little overdue on updating this thread. Finally wrapped up a few projects which I think are worth sharing.
I posted this in the repurposing thread, but thought It best to keep it on this one as well.
A few years ago I was given a handful of Harley sprint motors. Most of them weren’t worth rebuilding. This one here was good for the 5 speed transmission but the case was cracked when the starter failed. It’s a cool looking motor so I cleaned it up and made a beer tap out of it.

I had been working on my buddy’s 1982 Yamaha SR250 for the last 6 months. I was able to wrap it up a few weeks ago. The online motorcycle blog BikeBound picked it up which was really awesome. You can see the full article below

It was a heck of a fun bike to build and it’s even more fun to ride. The thing barely weighs anything. The only things left stock on the bike are the tank and the front forks. Everything has been chopped or modified......mostly removed. If you’re in the RVA area come check it out.
