Ted, it's way too shiny...
I think you need to enter it in this year's McKee's Vintage Enduro and defend your Vintage Class Champ title!

And...you won't have to worry about running out of gas before the gas stop!

Steel Tankers are not that great of an enduro ride compared to the Sportsmen Class bikes it has to compete with.  That is a museum quality restoration and it would be almost ashamed to get it dirty.

And Ted...make sure to leave the low pipe on it.
Riding one of the rocky jeep trails will give it some "patina" :D

You've done very well Ted, I love it. Probably the only thing that I'd do differently, is call it a '71.
