Alright. I guess why wait, right?
Did some degreasing. As you probably could've guessed...
Not anywhere near the quality of vaporblasting, but I decided that as my first build, I probably won't want to ride it as much if I'm scared of messing up the pretty motor. It's plenty nice looking all cleaned up, and if I spent the $350 on vaporblasting I'd be out that money, and afraid to take it out.
Now I can move forward, happily. I'm one step closer to rebuilding. I'll be ordering seals, gaskets, and other parts soon, as well as tires. I'll be measuring and writing down the width of the shifter forks and clutch plates, as well as the rocker arm width, and replacing anything that falls out of spec.
This thing is gonna see the street before the summer ends. I'm tired of screwin' off. I got nothing but time now.
Here's the fore and aft. Enjoy my spontaneous motivation.
