Decided im tearin her down. school starting in 3 days, no time to ride, then winter cant really ride in the winter, engine being done right now, broken stud gota wait a week for new one.
Replacing:
-A-arm bushings(delron suckers)
-swingarm bearings
-axle bearings
-axle seals and such
-straightening swinger(easy, found out whats bent)
-cleaning everything up, like EVERYTHING, fixing brackets, geting rid of brackets not needed
-NEW PAINT(NEED HELP)
-painting everything but doing a 2 tone. not totaly sure what colour scheme
not to mention the new carb needing a new connector from the airbox, so i think im going to make myself a custom aluminum one, or just buy a new one. new 240 kit so im going to be cleaning up the outside of the engine thouroughly and posibly painting. i need a smexy colour scheme idea. right now, im kinda into the yellow and black but it cant really work with a yellow frame. i have black plastics as you can see, and im most likely keeping them cuz new ones cost an arm and a leg.
big job, but should be sweet. whats a good online STORE not ebay to get parts like bushings and bearings from? that SHIPS TO CANADA and doesnt cost an arm and a leg to do so. local shops are a rip off, so online is a must for me.
i dont know what else to say. if anyones got tips on doing a full restore + paintjob, please let me know. any good tips and tricks while takin this thing apart fully would be greatly apreciated.
