Careful now, next thing you know this will be down to a bare frame and a pile o parts, then powdercoat, polishing, and painting. Before you know it you'll have a new bike!

from here its gonna get fork seals, brake flush, most likely new rotors, and go through the electrical system and strip out all the crap I dont want and then tidy it up. Essentially its gonna have the turn signals removed completely and the brake light moved. Find a speedometer, cut an inch of foam out of the seat (ive got short legs ) pull the pet cock apart and make sure things there are good, wrap the exhaust, finish the exhaust out to the back of the bike. . . . this list is depressing

Got my new pilot jet plugs today and they went it perfectly! now just waiting to hear about the o-rings for the needle seat to come in.
on a side note, found out my jeep needs new hubs up front, found the tie rod ends are shot and that I may have a bent axle shaft. sad day
Edit: cant figure out how to imbed the video but its of the jeep if anyone cares

got the front forks back finally and put on and also bled the brakes and cleaned out the throttle cable so it snaps back like it should. Didnt have time to test for a leak and mess with the carbs though.
the front sits an inch lower now too
