More of the 84




Spent a some time polishing the motor yesterday.  Nothing crazy, just wanted a reason to put my hands on it and really take some time to look at it.

It's no secret that I love shovelheads. To me, they strike me as a working man's motor.  Nothing against flatties, knucks, or pans. They are all beautiful motors, but there is just something about a shovel that does it for me.

For the polishing, I tried some old tins of Nevr-Dull that I had used on my '82 shovelhead.  For those of you who were in the military, you know how great this stuff works when it's a fresh can, but these were over 20 years old and they still did the job!

Took me back to days long ago of bootcamp and AIT...
