Sacha Posted September 24, 2012 Author Posted September 24, 2012 Made some progress this weekend... getting closer...
Sacha Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 Thanks guys. I'm hoping to sort out the wheels and brakes this weekend along with stringing the wiring and adding some more shiny bits... then I can get going on the engine.
Measures Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Looks good so far. You should try a timelapse!
Sacha Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 Looks good so far. You should try a timelapse! I don't have near the patience of the one guy who did the 3000 photos and a lot of coffee one... I'd add one thing, take a pic, add another, take a pic. He seriously took pics of the entire processes of removing, cleaning, and adding the pieces. He probably had more pics of just screwing in one piece than I have in total.
Measures Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Haha, I didn't take may either. Next time I take it to bits I might try one as I've got a timelapse app on my phone

dt502001 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Ok so you won the free bike for parts any idea if the seat pan is any good?
Sacha Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 Ok so you won the free bike for parts any idea if the seat pan is any good? Well the seat is actually intact so I'd imagine it's in better shape than mine was.

He wants nothing to do with it... and doesn't understand how I can enjoy doing it.
Moderator YamaHead Posted October 2, 2012 Moderator Posted October 2, 2012 Definitely going in the right direction here Sacha...... frame looks great!
CorradosandYahas Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Oh it will definitely run. The engine on the parts bike would start first kick w/choke every time in the morning. I drove it for coffee every morning til the mag quit. Between the two I have no doubt you will have a runner before winter comes.

Definitely going in the right direction here Sacha...... frame looks great! Thanks guys! Had to have hubby tear the middle console out of my car to clean up a damn spill so didn't get much done besides cleaning that up. Did finally pick up a motorcycle jack though. And thank you again CorradosandYahas! It was great to meet you.
