Front-end rebuild and upgrade

[seth]

Ok so I'll be adding pictures as i go
To my front-end rebuild and upgrade.

So far
I've stripped the front off the bike
(Wheel, forks,handle bars,headlight,yokes,brakes, oilcooler,exhaust and frame bearings.)
Rubbed down and de-rusted the frame .

I've now repainted the frame.

nice mate frame looks great 

[seth]

Though I'd better make an effort as some quality going on it during the rebuild .
It's going to be great once it's finished (no pressure on your bit lol )

[seth]

Sent you a couple of emails buddy .

[Blubber]

About time you did this... You have been mentioning this for 2 years 

[seth]

@Blubber I know finally got my house on the market so have the time to get all the bits I've collected fitted on to the bike .
Looking forward to following your 1550 build next

1700 cc... What's A few cc 's under friends


PS.. Coincidentally just delivered the modified EFE frame at the coater.

I'd convinced myself it was a 1550 but 1700 will be great can't wait to see the numbers it gives out .

I'm hoping to bring my bike over in April so that's my deadline to get it back on the road.

I got some more time in the garage so today I fitted the yokes
( these are yokes we are not American so will always be yokes  )
They look quite good paint blue still wondering if I add some white if the bike will turn faster 

Hopefully back at it later

[Del]

that isn't a kick in the but from the blue were using - whats it like compared to the grab rail

[seth]

I'll check when I next go in the garage 😎

[mlivkovich]

Do not add white! It will make steering slower!

[Blubber]

Looking good.

Nice to see you found some tinkering time 

[Yoda]

Hi Seth looking good finishes off the big muscle bike look. 👍👍

Not a fan of these triple trees  not even in silver, but it's your bike, not seen a standard type top yoke that looks ok with usd's, also front guard also will look weird, soz
