Hey guys, sorry but I got so involved in the project I didn't take any pics along the way, but IT STARTS!!!!! 
After a month and a half and all of the boxes that the bike came in, IT STARTS!!!!! Now I just have to fix all the bugs. It is ideing high at startup and even when warm, about 4200rpm 
, I'm just thinking that I should rebuild the carbs (keeping in mind that all I was doing was putting the puzzle together and not really disassembling anything for cleaning). I figure that should cure that. I'll give her an oil change. and see what happens from there. Over the winter I will be doing a complete teardown with new paint, degreasing everything, etc. basically a compete restore is the project for now, it may change as the weather grows cold. 
If anybody has any other ideas to get it smooth for now, please advise, and thanks again.
