so... I PROMISE to get a real camera tomorrow... promise!
all I have left is to add fluids, install lower wind deflectors on the forks, 3m protective tape on the rear fairing, install saddle bags, make (coat and weld) rear floating fender (this will be done tomorrow some time), mount shock resivor
yesterday: got new swing arm bushings in, installed swing arm and dog bones, got rear wheel in place, mounted and installed fog lights, finished leds, installed rear fairings/grab rails, installed exhust (with copper seal), final mounted front fender, lubed and cleaned chain, installed tank, put back on the seat
i am glad that i left the exhaust chrome rather than coating it, i kind of like how it stands out... but i have another header so i may just coat it and toss it on to see how i like it... bike looks like it could be in a comic book, love it so far... the suspension feels great but i have not rode it yet, not you typcial fighter but it should handle 10x's better... carbs where synced and balanced before tear down, valves set, float needle adjusted, baffle removed, progressive suspension up front with 15w oil, rear GSXR shock with remote resivor, 170 rear tire, new pads, rebuilt brakes... bike should handle betterthan ever!
black swing arm was 100% the right call!
again i promise that i will get a real camera on this sucker to do it some justice! was pouring today and last night so i did not want to roll it out there
