Absolutely. There is no need to do it all now. focus on the needs list and get that baby running.

A little progress tonight.
As you can see, I got the rear suspension all buttoned up. I have been soaking all of the roller bearings in the linkage. After I pulled them out of the parts washer, I blew them out and installed everything with fresh grease and some blue loctite on the fasteners to make sure nothing vibrates out on me.
I also got down to painting a lot of little bits that I have had laying around.
With these parts painted, I should be good to go on installing the motor tomorrow. :woohoo:
BTW benhurmx, those headlight ears belong to you.

Looking good bud.
It will be a very good feeling, for u to see the motor in.

No doubt! That motor has been setting in a corner of my garage for something like 2 1/2 years. I had my bike so completely dismantled that my family would ask if I got rid of it when they came to visit. I really wish that my early pictures could convey just how terrible the condition of this motorcycle was when I started.
