    well rotors, wheels, hub, new headlight, brake lines, new hardware kit, rear shock, seat cover, forks are all here. waiting on chain, rear sprocket, levers, grips, mirrors, windscreen, fairing brace to get here this week and then I can start to put it back together.

    Only thing left is frame and that will be done in next couple weeks.

    My goal is to have it out in march for the first ride and then get it up to moons to have it tuned.

    slow progress. Have tons of parts arriving and getting really anxious to get jamming on it. The new headlight went in smooth and the powdercoating on the rotors and wheels are turning out nice. I went a little cheap and painted the hub versus powdercoat cause didnt want to pull that expensive ass bearing in there that looked perfect


    All that is left for these is for bearings and dust seals to arrive

    It wont be long now. Tonight I got to cleaning the shit out of the motor because Pork did my frame. Now its just move slowly to replace all the hardware with new stuff from bolt motorcycle hardware. Its a semi gloss black powdercoat and looks sweet gang! Had to spend time last night putting some things together to get ready for the motor to go in.

    got the forks drying with heat on them now. Tried to find various fork combos but wanted black shell. Couple guys online suggested just rebuilding the oem ones and then epoxy painting them for durability so I did. Shop here in town rebuilt the forks and I took care of painting with a local guy at my work helping. Never done epoxy before but thats some nasty shit to get off ya.

    The headers are bolted up and repainted those with hitemp black. They were fading and chipping and as pork knows always bugged me. Thats taken care of now.

    Until I get the bearings all I can do is let the forks setup for 24 hours, mock up the 954 tail light with the rear cowl on, paint the calipers black, put the new brake lines, levers on it and then wait........

    I don't do much of it, we have a powder paint line at work and its not real easy to get space as they are always swamped.

    okay had a set back. I got some feedback from a fellow online member of another board. I had no complaints of the bike suspension cause I really am still learning it BUT i wanted black shocks to match the frame. He suggested epoxy paint......in hind sight the shocks are annodized not painted but I didnt think it through and once the paint cured I slid them through the forks and OF COURSE.......it scratched to shit.

    Ebay searches, paypal info entered a gsxr 1000 forks are on their way so I can then put the front end together. hopefully they come quickly. The only thing I will have to buy then will be the chain.

    Got the Honda 954 tail light mocked up on it with a tray mounted in rear to hold it. I have a race undertail coming to fill the gap so that stuff wont be seen underneath and will be clean. Got the radiator and hoses routed today with resovoir bolted up. Add coolant and change the oil and put new plugs in it and pretty much ready to bolt the gas tank down and fire it up. Will wait to get the front end together. With the problem and the front shocks I have K4 1000 shocks coming on Friday so that will be tits and bearings will be here tomorrow so thats going to be sweet to get it into a roller.

    Get the airbox coming in and think will be golden

    Today was fun cause my wife was off too so she worked on it with me
