I'd think a PM might do it. His profile has an email link too. memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=992

I just searched for the word "key" and found the old key thread. He posted this:

Please put Keys in subject..

Hi everyone and thanks to all who have posted to this thread. I really appreciate your guidance. I've started reassembly and I'm trying to get all of the wiring and harness's back to the original factory locations. I have pics of my bike prior to disassembly but the previous owner didn't care too much about keeping the bike in good order. Does anyone have pics of an H1D with the seat up, side coves off and open headlight bucket that I can use as a guide?

Go to page 6 of this index and look at my H1D restoration. You should find all the pictures you need.

Thanks Guts!
A beautiful job and very good pics. This will help!
Can I ask how you got that satin finish on the front forks? Looks better then just polishing them :thumbup:

I copy the satin finish the factory used, I do it with scotchbrite pads by hand.

Can anyone help me to identify this oil seal? It was included in the replacement kit that I received from FBG. I'm not sure where it goes but I'm getting ready to install the Crank and button up the crankcase and I sure don't want to miss anything. Thanks!
