I came across this site last night, of any use? Lots of other rubber bits for other bikes as well.

That is a spectacular looking machine. I have always liked the look of the Zundapp machines.

Superb site Shawn! Been looking for a reasonable price on a set of tank knee pads for my Rocket3. Lots of other goodies for some of my bikes as well.

Did a bit of polishing. I had done the hard part awhile ago so it was just a touch up with Blue Magic and a polishing cone http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/mothers-powercone-0399078p.html#.VnLgFyWFMkI  Nice work on a rainy night.

Good lord Chris, that's impressive. And the bike shows you'll have to drain and drop a bowl and put a mirror under it. Great work.

Looks good Chris.    I did some boring stuff this weekend to the XLCR,  seems at some point in its history the original owner put it away hard and there is quite a bit of pitting on the wheels as well as the brake hardware.  The tapered bolts holding each disc on the wheel needed quite a bit of encouragement to remove them and fortunately I did not strip them or break the heads off.
Ordered a new copy windshield from Gustafson Plastics ( thanks for the lead Chris )  Found a couple of sidecover decals  ( AMF ) as it seems like the fad was for everyone to immediately remove them from their Harleys not wanting their bikes to simulate AMF sports gear.
Boring stuff
