As it has been so cold recently I have been keeping some of the parts that have been fleshy painted in the house. Here are the results below.
Top yoke.
Rear brake torque link.
Carb overflow housing.
Sprocket cover.
After a session last night this is how the bike now looks. I took loads of photos where everything went so when I come to put it back together I should have a good reference point.
New wiring loom all labelled up. The wiring in the headlight was a mess at start but it was simple enough once I had studied it a bit.
Headlight and wiring. I am going to give the black headlight housing a paint at some point as certain areas need tarting up.
One thing that always bugged me when riding the bike was how the ignition barrel would vibrate terribly. Having had a closer look the rubber mount has a piece missing and the wiring is seriously shoddy. Looks like I'll need a replacement barrel.
Battery tray, this will be shot blasted along with the frame, swinging arm and foot pegs.
Dials removed from the bike. I will be replacing the top section of the clocks as the plastic has been worn away due to the cable routing.
Brake caliper and leaver. The spring running down the piping will be replaced a long with the brake pads. The leaver is in pretty good condition.
Throttle twist grip, choke and switches. I didn't want to dismantle all this as it came off the bike together.
Forks removed from the bike. I had a bash on Monday with some sanding blocks, wire wool and Autosol on the fork stanchions. I'll have another go now they are off the bike.
Rear brake light sender removed, it just needs a clean.
