new guy B.C.

So ya mean mix up a batch and spray it all over the bike and motor....drive chan is in place...and cool it even has a fuel guage and only 2000 miles on her.

Would keep acetone off plastic or painted parts or wiring, and keep the dousing mostly on metal parts.

Later will come the Amoral on wiring and soft parts, and perhaps some careful pressure washing. Then diy soda blasting on engine.

Thinking primary objective will be to first see if the engine will turn over, after extended soak inside cylinders.

Wanting to avoid doing any damage from forceful disassembly of parts or efforts to rotate the crank. Pistons/rings may be rusted to cylinder walls.

Other members will have better suggestions.

Good Fortune!

not a bad deal at all man, i would have done it in a heartbeat.

I would pour a good squirt of straight motor oil down the plug holes and let it sit for a night, two stroke oil works good too. and PB blaster or Kroil around the plugs before you take em out. aluminum and steel dont like eachother after a while. just to warn ya.

Some motivated shop time here and there and your cruisin! compression, spark, fuel, fluids, the usual things.


BTW, im down here im Bellingham washihgton, border town to BC, gooood buds!

keep us posted man.

if you don't want it i'm coming over to abbotsford to pickup a cartire dragbike chassis at the end of the month. i need a j parts bike. let me know.

Thanks for the welcome....got 3 plugs out today they were loose but got too exited and broke one lucky its on the outside cylinder ....so chipped out all the porceline and vacumed it out soaked it with wd40 ...no croil up here in B.C. gave it a little heat with the torch....soak some more gotta get some easyouts from work tonight....dang should have let it soak but get too hyped up......whanna see if I can get this piece of crap turning over....soeked the chain ....mayby put it in gear and try and roll it back and forth after a good soaking of the cylinders....mayby pop the cam cover and soak the cam too....got no patiencs

Naaa ill keep her got plans for it but you guys will probably dissown me if I tell ya Ill just post progress ...but my picks are too big and some wont post thats the problem with these 10 meg cameras got any tips on posting too big picks...I seem to ecced the administraters maximum and where is the spell check

if you open your picture in paint. you go to strech and skew and you can reduce the size that way.

Well lucky me got the last broken plug out easy outs didnt work just kept drilling out one size bigger each time til I got close then it cleaned up .....happened to have a spark plug thread chaser from I dont know where and it fit so chased the threads and good as new.......next pulled the ignition to get a new key made.......

So whats the secret to getting the plastic air filter box out ??do I have to yank the carbs off first just whant to clean it up ...and is it a big deal to take the carbs off my throttle is frozen too.

the carbs have to come off first.

Why remove the air filter box?

Good Fortune!

Those are great bikes.

I have been working on one that looked almost that ratty, for a very long time.

The thing is if you want to recreate a bike, the steps are pretty much the same no matter what the cosmeyic condition is. You always paint the frame and body parts.

The engine well with 2000 niles you may just need to disassemble clean and reassemble.

There is a real interesting project post for engine coating kzrider.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&...w&catid=11&id=191240
