Thanks Scuba... the tins won't be any different than before.
Thanks Lee and Lambo
Relaoderbmg... come on up on ground hog day (Feb 2nd). That's when I plan on bolting up the primary and whatever else we can get into. I might get the motor and tranny in before that.
Anyway, on todays list...I got a resonable amount done before I had to go to work.
Got the laptop out for "help pics"
Chased all the tapped holes on the frame & swingarm to ensure clear bolting when its needed. Here's a few shots...
I taped the hell out of the frame & swingarm after that. Don't want to F'up the new powder
Cleaned up the steering neck races. They had some residual from the acid dip and whatever.
Worked on the tripples.
Mount the fork stop to the lower tree
Spin in the neck shaft to the upper tree
Lube the neck bearings with Mobil 1 synth grease
Bolt up the tripples to the neck. All ready for fork legs
Get the swingarm and work on getting the pivit bolt bushings installed
Pound half way these in with a large socket
Then install the "Jesus Christ clips" and pound in the remaining amount
both sides
Bolt up the swingarm to the frame with the pivit bolt
Slid the backbone wiring back thru so its ready to have its harness clips replaced
I did start working on the forks, draining the fluid and then started into the stupid task of replacing the fork seals. Will post more on that later once they're done. But here's what we are looking at by the end of today.
Hopefully Sat, I will pick up my gas tank from the dealership, then finish the forks, bolt up the rear shocks and oil bag. Also, Zoop the wheels, then assemble the rotors and pulleys to those wheels. Maybe even mount up the front wheel. Won't be able to do mount the rear wheel till my chrome gets here monday.
