Might be a good idea to replace the brake lines, this is one of the front ones:
So in comes the goodstuff!
rear:
front:
also new tires, and the cleaned rear wheel:

Im in the market... where did you pick yours up?

Yes, you need to make the time. Totally worth it, before I could pull the lever almost all the way in to the handlebar. Very spongy, now i can use two fingers on the brake and stopp in an instant! Very little travel, it was actually a little difficult to set the stop light switch right because of the little amount of travel before the brakes activate...
I picked them up from a guy on ebay: http://stores.ebay.com/motorsporttoolsukDannyMotor said:
Part Number front: SU0752-3FC
Part Number rear: SU0752-1RC
Shipping took an extra week to ten days because they weren't in stock so goodridge had to make them. But I had time to wait, besides, our bikes are old so we can't demand that everything should be in stock either

I've started to paint now!
Unfortunately it looks a little flat and dull here, it's better in real life. Waiting for the second coat to harden now then I'll sand it down with 1200grit before I apply stickers and clear coat.
However I see it's a little bit darker than expected so I'm not sure if it'll go well with the orange stripe. It'll look good with the gold but the bright orange I'm not that sure!
I have also drained my tank so it's ready for the bill hirsch tank sealer kit
Then it'll get repainted too.

Wow... great color!! It doesnt look dull in the slightest. Orange will make it sporty... gold will make it classy. Haha.

Never heard of bill hirsch, is it as good as POR-15?

I don't know, but the place I got it sold both, at the same price. Now they only sell hirsch. It's probably good
Today I have wetsanded the paint before I applied the clearcoat, waiting for it to cure now
I have also sanded down the back fairing and applied decals, have to wait 2 days before I can apply the clearcoat!
I think I will use both the orange and gold as It didn't look as bad as I thought it would

Hot damn.... THAT looks great! Sporty/Classy indeed... hahaha. Is that pic of the tail before clear? Are you using 2k Urethane?
S
Spiff
Guest
Yes the tail is before clearcoat, I have to wait a minimum of two days before applying the clear because the decals need to be absolutely dry and free of moisture...
No I'm just using ordinary rattlecans sadly...

Thanks
Here's the rear cover with clear, waiting for it to cure. Tomorrow I can put it back on
And I assure you the stripes are not pink and light brown even though they may appear too
I also removed the rusted and scarred turn signal bracket and fixed it up real nice with some fresh paint, wish my frame was this nice
And finally I have started to work on the tank, I should have started weeks ago but i guess it's better late than never
