Sunday Funday

[JP50515]

Hope you're all getting your hands dirty!

Re-Assembled this puppy today. This bike is the definition of PITA. lol Every bearing in the front end has to be custom made. Tank is custom, seat, swingarm....pretty much everything ha.

It's been fun tho. Gonna start it up as soon as I get the bearings in, and the bike somewhat rideable. Full rebuild on the engine, so I wanna be able to put a load on it.

Anyway...Cheers!

As a matter of fact I did get my hands dirty wrenching today. Your projects looks like a whole lot of FUN! Looks good too. Enjoy.

Sure is! We briefly talked about the XT a while back. This one is full race engine tho. 540 big bore, megacycle cam, springs, 2j2 valves, endless cam chain...I was told this setup is the winning bike at the local flat track each weekend. I'm a wee bit scared lol
