Belt buckle points cover


This is a belt buckle we converted to a points cover....also have a match as a gas cap

Working on it


Here we go....Engine was seized so we had to soak it in diesel for a few weeks in the garage...the wife loved that. Took her a few days to figure out what and where the smell was coming from :)

This is what it looked like when we got it. Basket case, but all there. Ended up needing everything. But we wanted a bike to learn on...so it is awesome

Valve stem seals

Hey Guys... I am in the middle of re-building my 74 Ironhead 1000, I am a rookie at this, but trying to do everything myself, with help from a good friend of mine, who's background is all Norton, so he isnt too sure either.

My question is, do I need valve stem seals or not, ?

Any help would be great
