Wow! I’ve been slaving away on the gas tank all day, I’m far from done with that yet. That’ll be the subject for another post.
However I have some more first impression photos.
The tool kit looks pretty complete
A look under the seat
Seat is off, the seat pan looks amazing, almost new.
The seat, not so much. And check out the funky trim fasteners, they are all like that and I think they’re going to be challenging to work with.
A look under the side covers. They look like an archeological dig. The whole bike is filled with cobwebs and petrified spiders, at least I hope they’re petrified!
The instrument cluster is in rough shape, haven’t quite figured out how I’m going to handle that yet.
The switchgear is pretty rough also. My left side switch has a broken headlight on/off button. Can that be repaired? Or am I going to have to source a replacement?
All wiring and sheaths looks brittle. All cables need to be replaced.
Lots more first impression photos to come, but gotta stop for now. Mama wants to go out for pizza and I have been lost in the garage for a couple days now! Haha!
Stay tuned,
Bob
