Summer Garage Week 2017: Day Four


With the swingarm, chain guard, main stand and brake stay fully dry, I re-assembled everything (except the stay).

But hard to get the full effect of the color test without the tank, so painted that next.  Just let it dry while mounted.

Missing the side covers, there's nothing to break up all that red, though.  Need to see it with the covers on, or maybe this is the time to play around with something like a contrasting white.


Had also realized that there was a full transmission sitting in the Early case - had totally forgotten I had another gearbox.  I removed the tranny and shifter from the Early case and put it in the new Late case.  But I put the Early case back onto Red, figuring I'd want easy access to the Late case as I start to build it up.

The first thing the new Late case needs is a new set of bearings (one's missing and the other one's rubbish.)
