Kinda new from B.C.

[Old Ugly 40]

Hi to all, I've been lurking around here for a couple of years so I guess it's time to come out of hiding and introduce my bike. I bought it back in the mid 60's but it hasn't been run for a number of years now. I took it apart to paint it a few years ago and haven't gotten around to putting it back together yet. Hoping to get going on it soon. Will get to better details later.
I apologize for not doing this earlier. I usually check this site daily and start reading the posts, new and old, then pofff, it's time for bed.
I thank everyone here for all the great info so far. Great reading. Thanks again to all.
I am going to have a million questions so get ready.
Time to try a picture. Be patient, I am not very good with computers. Will end this and try a couple.
Bye for now, Old Ugly

Hey, Old Ugly 40! Welcome. Nice machine. I don't know about the "ugly" part, though. Looks mighty handsome to me. Very cool that you have kept it that long, too! Dale

Good morning to all.
painterdale and Chuck#1848 - Thank you both for throwing out the welcome mat.
A lot about this bike is a long and sometimes Ugly story. I will try to explain this a bit in the Knucklehead and or the Member Bike Build sections.
If I do anything wrong please let me know.
Thanks again.
