Talked with Aaron Wilson a couple of days ago about the knack needed to install the Zippers pushrod covers. He got me over the hump with some good ideas. I tweeked them a bit and wrote them up on the assembly page.

The new lifters, adjustable pushrods and covers are now installed. Rocker boxes are all buttoned up. This afternoon I finished up the clutch actuator, rearsets, and the header pipe.

A couple of weeks ago, I noticed that the front tire was shiny over half the tread. Looked like oil. i felt oil at the bottom of one of the fork legs. But, the oil wasn't red like in the forks. Looked a bit further and found that it was from the clutch cable. Amazing! Glad I have to ride up a gravel road for a half mile before I get to the pavement.
