  • My work in progress....

    Person who had it before me lost almost all the fairing screws and grommets, had an oil leak which turned out to be the washer and oil seal going into the clutch, no windscreen, and only one mirror. Hey, not bad for $1300 right?? It ran but it's dissassembled getting redone. Especially the swingarm... OuCh, he threw a chain too. lol.... [/img]

      Oh yeah.... it's gonna be fun. Taking the swingarm off today to have it blasted. Just gonna have it powder coated like a gun metal color.... Hey, I did all the disassembly in one day... I can't wait for the 5 days it'll take me to reassemble lol... With it taken apart it gives me time to do some body work on it. Especially get rid of that ugly ass rear fender and those big ass mirrors.

          oh no, it was all together and running and fresh paint. Just needed a little freshening up and the oil leak fixed. He put F1 exhaust, new rear tire, K&N filters, and had the carbs dipped all before giving me it. I just had to fix the oil leak and the swingarm was bugging me.

                Z, your only allowed to have 1 at a time. That is the rules. Unless you have a prospect like Corey and I, then you can have more than one project going.

                  Nope, no mechanics special. I'll have it back together as soon as my parts get here and I get the swingarm done. Then I can post pics of it together. lol... Hey, who likes my bike lift? Nice eh? I'm thinking of patenting it... call it the "No Money but creative super duper bike might fall over but I'm too broke to afford a real bike lift"..... Hmm....

                      Oh yeah man, that's a defenite. I'm gonna make a bracket for the license plate and put a turn signal integrator on. That was a defenite to lose when I first saw it.
