thanks for the input marc, ended up stripping them and left them raw, all put back together and the bike is up and running now :)

do it right the first time and get it coated 2 stage color and clear,, its worth the money, don't rattle can it, even with rattle can clear it will fade and yellow before you know it.

try hempstead auto collision they usually are open to other projects other than cars, they've painted bumpers on my car good job fair prices,

^hey thanks for the response, sadly its a quite exspensive battery its the lithium ion ballsitic 8cell battery, i didnt check it before i installed it, the box has a manufactur date of november, i think i completely damaged the battery as well :(

So i bought a new battery for my bike that had been sitting for 10 years hooked it up to see if the electronics worked, nothing happened checked the battery and it drained down to 3.5volts within minutes, I've been told a short is the suspect. How do i locate the short? Tips/advice? first timer...

So i haven't posted in a while because there hasn't been much progress, but i managed to finish up the carbs, put together a little work bench, bought a new battery, combo rect/reg, and bunch of other small things. Hooked up the battery to see if the bike had power but nothing, checked the fuse...

got it.

Got the carburetor plate disassembled after figuring out how it worked, lets just hope i can put it back together :o. As of now only the carburetors will be getting a final restoration, (needed cleaning in order to get the bike running) as i had them apart i figured let me just finish them how i...

thanks man, it was fairly easy took a few measurements, made a template, a rubber mallet, heat gun, and a 32oz ball pein hammer is all I used.

Little update, tried out this knee dent thing, after i lower my butt with a new seat pan I will really see how my positioning will be, if the dents are not enough i will notch them out. Also had trouble disassembling the carburetor linkage plate, as it will be powdered as well, and tips...

hey like the title says i want to disassemble this part for powder coat i took all the bolts out tapped one end with a hammer but it wont simply slide out, any tips input or comments appreciated, in one photo you can see a bushing that popped out from me trying to get it out thanks again ] ] ] ]
