I am wrong... A lot. Don't worry, I know
I know, not too much of a good start for a cafe bike but its what I have. So, take a seat and enjoy the show. Recently, I've just been doing regular maintenance like oil, brakes, carb cleaning, etc. I am waiting on parts for G&S Suzuki (intake boots, kinda important) and after a few more tweaks I will be ready to fire it up and get going with the project.
Things I have done:
Still left
Current pictures
NEW MC
Seat, tank, fender mockup
Some mock ups when I was bored and it was raining.
(So what do you guys think? If I go all out, I may paint the frame the same color as is on the tank now or close enough.. Or, may just leave it black. I know the seatpan is wayyyy too long, I just did it to cover up the frame/locking mechanism)
Things I have done:
- New brake fluid (out with the old, in with the new)
- Replaced the sludge previously known as oil and the filter
- Full carb rebuild... Twice (actually got a new set since a bunch of the jets were seized/destroyed).
- Spark plug boots replaced, fresh wire>boots.
- Coils re-mounted with new screws, nuts, etc.
- Upgraded to an adjustable Nissin MC from an FZR1000 (OEM MC was mangled)
- Wired in a 650 Katana RH controls (Old one was missing parts/not connecting)
Still left
- Dents, paint, powdercoat, rust, engine paint
- Tires (Going with Shinko 230s, 110 front 130 rear)
- Dynojet Kit
- Dyna green coils
- New seat/fiberglass
- Fix a few wiring faults, then clean up the harness
- Rework electrics, relocating to the tail
- Fine tune carbs
- Valves
- Brake pads front/rear
- Shocks (Hagons, group racing, or RFY depending on money)
