Re: Frame Webbing Installation

I wonder about the spring tension. I see there are springs for the gas tank itself. Unsure where those would go and whether or not they have more tension than the radiator spring.

Re: Frame Webbing Installation
Up until I saw Dave's post, I was going to pie cut the frame above or just behind the axle to bring it up, but I think that 1/4" gap needs to be there for clearance for the tank?

Re: Headlight wiring
So to be clear, the wiring harness itself is supposed to reach up, through the conduit, and into the head light bucket then the plastic piece holds the wires against the socket with the 3 pins? Does...

Re: Radiator cap/grillshell
Thanks for the information. I may try this.
Though there isn't much of the radiator neck sticking up at all.

Re: Radiator cap/grillshell
Ah, that's too bad. I wonder if a radiator shop could extend the neck on the radiator. Who makes a good reproduction shell?

Re: Headlight wiring
Thanks for the response. So it's clipped to the radiator bottom itself?
