thats looking good tri. What kind of aluminum polish did you use for the side pieces?

and switching to cleaner and cleaner rags after the rub in coat...untill the rag wipes clean..i am using the old socks and underware and every white rag i can steal from amy....then starting over and applying a tad and rubbing it around...then cleaner rags again...many times over.....i also got some dif sheets of the finest sandpapers and am using that on the stubborn spots(cam ends-oil breather ...ect.) first going finer and finer then parts cleaner flash spraying and then wipe it and start the mothers runs again...it seems like i'm going back wards if i rub it to0 little or dont use a clean spot on the rag everytime....your motor will come out great ...i got pics of the outer covers with the masking tape off now...they came out sharp from 3 feet...lol


going to try and start it by sunday...so many pics to come this weekend...i have dreams of riding it to the motogp....or at least to one of the bike nights they host...running outta time for that though...it's next thur-fri-sat....peace

craig, looking good....i used to use mothers and a rag and it took forever......get yourself a 50 buck grinder/buffer combo from harbor freight and never look back....that and a pack of white,red and black buffing sticks and you can do wonders......pull the part,cut it with the red and finish with the white.....good to go......black is for the real oxidized and nasty stuff...then go red and white....just have the wheel spinning and load up the disk with what you need.....a few wipedowns with a microfiber between colors helps a lot........

please if you have time post a link here in this thread to the buffer or a pic and pics of the the material disks ect..i am dislex and a.d.d and can only really retain the info to go shopping if i see a pictureeven for just a few seconds.. i will remember it forever through mental image pictures ,but if i write it down like say part #'s ...i end up at the store and have lost the paper or left it at home ect...frustrating.........not as much of a joke as it sounds.. .thanks for the tip....

Craigy... Where's the Yami XT images?

Both Plum and I love those old thumpers....

Hey tri what kinda of music do you like. I have to give something back with the intake boots

amy says when folks wanna send somthing...that she would love a simple postcard or fridge maganet ,somthing to put on our little kawasaki friends board or fridge area.....

just the postcard or some local picture ect...

p.s ,i believe i have enough boots and discovered that your extras are not even needed really...you should keep em and now have a back up set yourself for your next score....

thankks for asking....

i currently have all my music and don't really find much unless on accident that i seek to add....

but if you have any obscure bluegrass or americana or modern indie rock...indie folk stuff...burn me a c.d and we'll throw it in on a drive and maybe learn a new artist....

peace
