That is an awesome color combination!

I am thinking about i!

@VintageRestorations-by-WS I haven't seen where they have posted any information for the next one yet

@@MyWillypilly You are right..... I had been looking too....hopefully in the next year or so....

@@waltersowa6140 You know that other one too? It's called something else, they ran it on route 66 last go

@@MyWillypilly I have been waiting on a tool for the past 4 weeks - a Lisle cylinder hone.... just received it yesterday, so will finish the engine this weekend and hopefully install it this weekend... and I have quite a few videos to post.... I am just a little bit behind.....

@@MyWillypilly Titled by engine. There is no serial number stamped on the frame.

I am going to do that! Thank you!

@@inder605 The owner of the book would probably flip out. I hated even showing those pages on camera! The book is worth buying. In the US at www.aaok.com or www.replicantmetals.com. In the UK or Europe, at www.VLheaven.com. That is Steve Slocombe's site. And when I rebuild the transmission and engine online, I will lay out every part in order, like an exploded diagram.

Steve Slocombe wrote a book.... Harley Davidson - 1930-1936 Big Twins: Buying, restoring and riding a VL www.vlheaven.com/books.html It gives a pretty good layout of of how to build one... Plus, I've bought a few spare parts catalogs that lists the parts and provides some pictures....

Yes. I'm not an expert, but I'll do it according to the rider's manual.

@@VintageRestorations-by-WS🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 I’m turning on notifications for your channel. Absolutely love and appreciate the content!!

Thank you for your comment! Was cleaning up after the hurricanes last weekend. But I have sealed the tank, changed the petcocks, and it is ready to roll. I work on posting a complete video of it. I've been running the SS1 carbs, and they are working very well. No leaks after installing the new gasket kits!

Leak has stopped! Will probably make a video this weekend.... bike is really done, other than polishing, and carbs do not leak either (and the idle has been better adjusted as well!)

Thank you for commenting. I live in Florida and have been dealing with the two hurricanes that just hit, but the Convert is generally done (other than cleaning and polishing.... which will be a large job!!!). I have the side cases on and have repaired and sealed the gas tank. All runs now as it should. I will be doing a video shortly of the motorcycle. I think I have it as original, with the side stand switch as it should be and the parking brake attached as it should be. It is such a fantastic bike! It starts immediately and rides so smoothly. I still seem to want to shift, but after a few minutes, I remember not to. I do not remember if I posted the video of the transmission rebuild, but I did record that and may post that. The transmission is really the key to that bike. It is so smooth and works so well. That is really my favorite bike. But the next video is coming up for the Convert.

@@VintageRestorations-by-WS I'm so pleased you like the Convert. I don't have one (had a Quota 1000 and a Mille GT (in that order - so backwards from date of manufacture), and loved the Mille GT best but... my clutch hand gave up and I sold the Guzzi and bought a Honda 750 with an auto box) but, well, I think I should have bought myself a Convert as it ticks the lovely solid goes forever kind of air-cooled Moto Guzzi thing, but is automatic! So, right now, all I can do is watch your great work on the bike and enjoy that. I hope you get to go on a good long trip with it. Thanks for being there.

Yes I will. I'm in Florida, so have been hit by the past two hurricanes....

@@waltersowa6140 I saw some footage from your area. Devastating flooding.

@@MyWillypilly Really worse than I even thought. I, fortunately, only lost four trees...

da hoću

nothing wrong with it

I live it Calgary Alberta

@@brianblais8877 engine number 1912, and i think frame number 1592...

@@brianblais8877 Email me a picture of your bike....Walter@sowalegal.com

@@kohlerK331 My numbers do not match either. I think the engine number is 1912. I'm in Palmetto, Florida, but the bike came from Minnesota via a barn in South Dakota.

@@kohlerK331 do you have any pictures? My email address is walter@sowalegal.com. And do you have the original carbs?

Hello. Send me an email.... walter AT sowalegal DOT com

You are right!

Already ordered!

I will... this bike rides so well already.... it is so comfortable!

The flywheel to the crank or the starter ring to the flywheel? For both, no. For the flywheel to the crank, it is going on exactly as it came off. But you bring up a point that I never thought of!

1. The motorcycle is not finished yet. I am recording as I review / discover. Life's problems are not discovered and solved in 22 minutes. 2. I am not a professional. How on earth could you believe that someone working on a motorcycle in their garage would be a professional? 3. If you watched the first episode, you would have discovered that I have no idea what I am doing. I have miss identified parts on my first walk through and am still stumbling through. As for you, why are not offering productive comments? I am recording what I am doing, when I am doing it. I will show the fixed item when I actually gets to that stage. Normally, I cannot identify what is not working until I somewhat get it operational. In the case of the tail light, I am still sourcing parts. This rebuild is a work in process of a motorcycle that had a stuck engine, where nearly every system was stuck, frozen, or rotted. It now runs and has 95% less rust. What I am offering is a view of how I work through the process. It is not a how to video by any stretch. It is only a fly on the wall video. I can tell that my videos are not for you. I understand that. Please don't watch if you want a how to video. Finally, if you are a professional motorcycle, please post a link for your channel and your videos. I would love to watch.

Fr its super nice

I am brushing it to push it in....
