I need a spare day (or a spare day for a friend) to drop the swingarm off at the machine shop, as well as the shock knuckle (needs to be narrowed slightly to fit the modern shock). I have tabs planned out and ready to cut when the swingarm gets back. Talking to a friend of mine who does machining for a living about some bushings in the short term.
Still hunting for some intake boots on the cheap from a 750. Once the cuts are made to the swingarm, we'll measure and install the tabs on the frame for the shock setup, and the rear end can go back together. I've done a preliminary cleaning of the engine, without a teardown; going to save that so I can do it all in one go. The forks have been resealed; I'll replace the tubes when I do the emulators and progressive wound springs, until then they cleaned up well enough with some wool and a little elbow grease. I have a sheet of paper taped to the drafting table to start working up the modified harness to incorporate the relay board and the EFI. Really enjoying that side of the project. All of this is moving a little slower because I have 15 credit hours and 36 hrs/week of work also going on at the moment, but it's still plugging along. -Kurt On Wed, Aug 29, 2012 at 4:24 PM, Joey Kelley <sandp...@gmail.com> wrote: > Which reminds me - how is that all coming? > -Joey > > On Wed, Aug 29, 2012 at 4:22 PM, Kurt Nolte <vturbine.po...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > Hey hey hey, I said I was NOT planning that for this 'hawk!
