alright lets start with the 1st time around on this particular project,now make sure to take notes steel !lets see i didn't paint it or bore the cylinders myself but i did manage to polish and prep all the shiny parts before delivering them to the plater which saved me lots of money since i do my own polishing,yes that's every little shiny nut and bolt and part on there. i managed to check the crankshaft for straightness and tig weld the pins all by my little self . i somehow managed to clean everything up including glass beading the cases and assemble the bottom end all by myself. i some how managed to install the pistons and the little round things that go in the little grooves and even put the spiral lock things in all by myself! oh hell i forgot i traded somebody some work to do my valve job,but i did manage to do a mild porting job and assemble the head all by myself!;)and then i managed to get the head on the motor and finish assembling it all by myself! wow im a big boy now!:laugh: ok to the frame i managed to build a bracket to mount a rear master cylinder from a 1980 kz1000 ltd with the remote reservoir mounted under seat because the regular master cylinder with integral reservoir wont fit under z1 side cover,wow that was a hard one! then i managed to get the frame and bodywork to a friend who owed me a paint job for some work i did for him,he couldn't bend conduit and i couldn't paint(are you keeping up here?)anyway i somehow managed to get everything assembled all by myself,wow what a big boy i am!:laugh:
please continue bigboy? :blink:
