Been Around the Block
So i picked up this KZ440B 2 months ago got in to the tear down over the first couple of weeks then had to put it on hold until i found a workspace to continue(sorted now )
question is, where to now? i have a bit of mechanical knowlage did 3 years in a engine recon shop when i was 15, 15 years ago, so its been a while. And i've not undertaken such a project ever
I have the idea that i want to do a teardown and rebuild, motor out rebore new pistons, re-seat valves, frame work to lose tabs and brakets re-paint, seatpan to hide all electrics smaller battery, 2-1 exhaust. 1 fork has a small leak so need new seals, then repaint, also paint rims. LED lights
I have no idea when it comes to electrics so will have to take it somewhere when at that point
Now i've had a couple of weeks not working on it and spent alot of time online researching i feel i've become a little lost of where to go and in what order.
My first thoughts are to get the lines looking good, the tank needs to sit down in the back and then i guess rearloop and seatpan.
will drop the motor out this week
should i leave elecrics where they are for now until seatpan is done or take them off?
would love some ideas on how to make a plan of attack in a order that makes sense
thanks for any help
