So I am going to finally start on my wife's motorcycle.
Flaco....thx my friend...turned me onto Georgia John's rolling frame. Everything but da engine. I have been looking for a roller or salvage for 2 years. I couldn't afford one now but committed to J and where there is a will there is a way. I sold a regulator, camera, mountain bike and some of my stash of bike parts. (BTW I was treated rt by Flaco and J so when I put my new parts up for sale I took used ebay and Pinwall pricing and discounted for the NBR buyers). Hope buyers are happy.
The project will take me a few months. Time mostly but money as well.
First .....the polished folks come off...the ricor innards go in the polished and they go on my bike.
2) My black forks will be painted BRG.
3) Wiring harness comes off and an electrician friend / rider is going to help me strip it down.
4) All the non essential protrusions come off the frame. Center stand mounts, oil cooler mounts, the muffler braces...my wifes bike will have a wrapped 2 into 1 scrambler headers. The big ugly square frame brace that goes from the back of the motor to the upper frame brace is cut off and a friend who welds artistically and for his motorcyles is going to rig me up a light small but stronger tube so we can have a see thru engine.
5) We are going to core out some of the swingarm to lighten.
6) Battery box will be made smaller and a small batter, rectifier, horn, fuse box etc will be hidden from view.
7) Billet oil coolers
8) I have D9's bracket already.
9) I have a front fender and the bac fender will both be chopped.
10) Billet indicators.
11) She gets my brown single seat in black leather.
12) Rear brake piston will be moved back to the frame and the side cover will be modded / cut and moved back on the frame to allow for "see thru".
13) Everything will be re painted a combo of BRG, black and ??? I'll probably look for a lot of suggestions there.
14) and the rims...what do I do ?????
When that is done I need an engine. ;-)))
When I start pictures will come.........
