hello just thought i would put a bit of a thread up
as im working on my bike just got it so started stripping it
its a k reg paid 360 for it
Image
and they cut exhaust off for some bizzare reason
and this is just me wondering if to go black or not
also they mocked up a gear change rod out of tinfoil i thing it was so got new hanger and gear change rod
im really happy with what i have done up to now doesnt look much but been bust couple of days
stripped engine out tommorrow
Image
next job get the horrible black paint off the engine
Image
had a go at calipers cleaned up quite nice but will be sprayed tommorrow
Image
think people think you dont need to change pads cant belive there that bad
Image
