Been a while, sorry.
anyway, some pics of my motor in bits....
replaced the cylinder head gasket, cleaned the heads and valves, new fork legs. yada yada.
Bike is running great now, still some kinks to be ironed out, but I hardly expected it to be without teething troubles.

Ripped it around the block a few times.....felt...really good.

Another Update.
So here is where the bobber stands.
I've mocked up the rear light and bracket for the plate.
They're elemental and ugly and bone simple, just like
the rest of the bike.
The bodywork is painted to my satisfaction,
I may stencil something down the spine of the tank,
haven't decided for sure.
Waiting for a dry day to enamel coat the exhaust
system, undediced on whether I will wrap the
headers or not.
I've done some more work on the seat foam since
these photos were taken, to smooth out the top line of
the bike, the tank now blends into the seat pretty
much seamlessly.
Other than that I just need to plate it, insure it, ride it.
