Thanks! It's always nice to take a trip back in time - I finished reassembling the Goose today, and got to ride it a bit, and man I felt like a kid again for a few minutes!

Here's some final pics - it was overcast, but I figured you guys might wanna know how it turned out. I decided to keep all the original decals and just work around them. I know they're scuffed, but it's nice to see stuff that's 27 years old still look and ride good.



I wound up replacing the chain too - it was cheap enough, and the old one was too rusted to be presentable.



And here's the final shot -



It rides great so far! I will check it over again once I put a few miles on it. Don't worry, I fixed the rear brake pad after I took the pic LOL.
