I was going to give the bike a good wash all around the innards before putting the fairing on... But timing for shopping and stuff kinda put that to tomorrow... But today I did get the "spare" tank out and started to work on the rusty hole and stuff...
Ok this is the spare tank that the dealer offloaded onto me... Ive desided to get this working... fix the hole and the majority of the rust so I can swap it round with the tank thats on my bike... The one with the paint thats gone crazy paving.
That tank has no rust issues but if I can get the other tank on the bike I can take the time to really do a good job on the paint work...
So sanded, acid washed... sanded acid washed... rinse repeat.... Anyway got it down to good metal made the hole bigger by removing the flakey rusty edges... and used the miracle that is JB Weld to fill the hole and skin the pitted metal...
I did my research the normal JB weld epoxy can be used on dry tanks... once its sets the petrol doesn't affect it and keeps it sealed.
Tomorrow ill sand it down smooth and deal with the rust underneath... Its not pretty... though i dont think there are any holes there.....

Do you have a helmet cam?
If not, I'll buy you one if you promise to use it religeously.
Now, where do I find some fireproof SD cards.... ____________________ trevor saxe-coburg-gotha:"Remember this simple rule - scooters are for men who like to feel the breeze on their huge, flapping cunt lips."

New battery in the ZX6R and then a test ride after the recent fork rebuild with re-chromed stanchions. No more leaky fork seals. |

Green lane - singular, one lane, on my 2T. I'd planned to do a few in the short time I had to play, but ended up riding up and down and round and round really slow on the first one, trying to help someone who stopped me at the start of the lane to find their dog. We didn't find their dog.
Oil check, and a chain lube on the vanvan. |

Decided I wanted to make a wheel decal for the 701. Did a test trace of the rim, then designed it and used the vinyl plotter to make it. Came out pretty good but I need something to make the rim super clean as it had trouble sticking in parts. Also want to try it in floro yellow.

Fitted the carbon clutch / engine guards with the glue stuff (horrible) and pretty sure it's not going anywhere...
