Internet Repair Manual Depository

Hi, guys. Have not been around for a while - finally remembered my log-on. Hope all is well.

I don't understand why it exists but there it is ... an amazing resource for old bike lovers. Have fun.

cool site if you happen to work on the old stuff like i do

Thanks for posting that.

And thanks for the wheel restore writeup you did a few years back.
I hope you don't mind - here's a pic of one of your wheels:

KZ550 wheel - refurbished by Salvy

Wow, beautiful job on the wheel. Do you have a pic of it on the bike?

Wow - blast from the past. I wondered if those pix were still available since the forum software was updated. Thanks for the plug - and you're welcome!

I'd love to know how those wheels are holding up ... the bike ended up in Knoxville some years ago and not sure what's happened since. I hope it's still in one piece.

However the trusty steed has been memorialized online. I noticed the KZ550 article in the motorcycle wiki was short on images so I volunteered a few of mine.

The photobucket account is still active. The photo links from the writeup can be copied & pasted into the address bar. Here's the link to the wheel restore how-to:

Here are your Photobucket photos .

Thanks!

Hey, I'll be darned! Looks like there are better "after" photos online. I had completely forgotten about them.
