Sucks to buy OEM, just the small matter of 1600 quid, should an original exhaust ever become available for my Zed. ____________________ Things get better with age; I'm close to being magnificent........

Bumping this because I'm collecting parts from powder coating this weekend and therefore I'll be getting on with doing some actually building.
Only a year late, I blame work and buying a GSXR1100 for distracting me. ____________________ 18:54:48 Rob Fzs: jews don't give away stuff for free

Havn't been able to make biblical progress for several reasons -
1) Still waiting for parts back from vapour blasting (fork legs, engine bits)
2) Some new parts are still to come.
Really my next goal is to get to a rolling chassis so I can stash it back in the shed. In order to get to this point I needed to make a decision on wheels. I have two sets, one that was on the bike (front in emulsion white / rear in standard gold) and a set from a scrap bike which were just about holding on to the original black finish. After much apathy and thought I deceided to attempt to bring the standard black set back to condition as best as possible using the facilities I have at home.
Wheels be-bearinged and degreased, then laboriously masked with Kabuki tape and Copydex. I never want to do this again as long as I live - I did it over two days to stop me becoming An Hero due to boredom.

I then attacked them with Halfrauds rattle can gloss black. The convoluted design of the castings makes them a real bastard to get paint in all the nooks and crannies.
End result -

After removing the masking I used scotchbrite to polish away any paint creep. Quite pleased with the overall effect, the wheels will never look like new - they have dings here and there from 30 years of hamfisted tyre changes but even my deep pockets don't stretch to NOS wheels!
Also got the rear mudguard and refurbished rear light assembly mounted just before I ran out of bolts.

I'm off tomorrow, if I can face it I might attempt fitting wheel bearings and tyres... ____________________ 18:54:48 Rob Fzs: jews don't give away stuff for free

Well managed to get the wheels finished today. All new bearings / bolts / tab washers and tyres.

Really I need to get the fork legs back so I can figure out getting it back on it's wheels, I now have a new rear spindle and all the bits to remount the centre stand so once I get the forks built it's rolling chassis time. ____________________ 18:54:48 Rob Fzs: jews don't give away stuff for free

Is the engine 100% refreshed? Sure you've mentioned a page ago but its last year
Starting to like the older style bikes, especially the 2 stroke ones, heck I'd even love to sit on an old 400/4 Getting old. |
