Red: Front Axle Fixed, New Bash Guard

Got the new front axle that had clean 1.25 (fine) threads.  At first the new axle nut didn't seem to turn easily on it (again!).  But then I ran the nut onto the rear axle, which served as something of a tap and just took off that tiny bit of material.  After that the nut threaded just fine.  Done and done.

Also cleaned the new CL90 engine guard and installed it.  It has four holes that match the peg mounts, and then two smaller holes that actually match up to the cylinder jug.

But the holes in the cylinder are a bit odd in that they are 5mm but don't seem to be threaded.  Yet it doesn't seem like there could be a nut on the other end.  Need to find a schematic to see what the original intent was.
