Posted: July 8th, 2014, 3:36 pm
doing a refresh on the old girl.
she doesn't look bad, but i think a few things can be done to improve.
at the moment I'm waiting for the cylinder that is getting a re-sleeve, so i have plenty time to work on it.
so i have polished the front wheel, swing arm, new fork protector graphics and new swing graphics, new grips.
callipers painted gold, and a good clean.
at the moment I'm doing the rear wheel witch needs a lot of sand as there is some oxidation.
I'm doing also the wiring for road use with battery and all normal stuff as a road bike.
a few pics of before and after:
BEFORE:
AFTER:
also have a new white large capacity fuel tank and new scoops to go.
