well i got a bit more done again tonight... I was finally able to get the bike up on the lift...
first i knew i was not going to put duel rotors on the front so there is no point in keeping the mounts for it... cut them off... ground that down, then polished the slider... shortly after that i polished the other slider as well... Now that that was done i did a bit of 80 grit sanding on the cafe seat... then i decided it was time to paint... i have been preping the body work all week long so i shot the last coat of racing white (with epoxy paint)... after that drys in a week i will lay out the design and shoot the red...
I also did a few small things the front end while i tore it down like:
put in new wheel bearings, trued the wheel, replaced the front brake pads, lubed the speedo cable
well here are the pics
Mount tab cut 1 of 2:
(before) hit it with the wire wheel so i could get the saws all to bite strait and clean with the cut)
Ground down: (i run a wood doll rod thought he axel holes cause it will allow me to hold the forks in place iwht my knees but also allow me to move it back and forth if i need to)
polished up side that had tabs cut off:
Polished other side (pics do not do it justice):
Gas tank (had two huge dents one on eihter side and a big dent in the front of the tank as well):
side covers and headlight bucket:
new wheel bearings:
