Re: what did you do to your bike today?

...well, after being busy for the past two weeks, I finally got to strip down the rest of the bike. Hopefully, my new tank and seat will arrive in the next week and I can get that laid out. I need to figure out how to make and mount some rear sets. Cut off any tabs I don't need. After that, the frame and some other parts go out for powder coating.
...I just picked up a complete front end from a '89 ZX-10. I'm hoping to adapt it to my '79 KZ without too much trouble.
...one step at a time.
...stripped!
...lots of clean up to do here.
...lots for the parts cleaner as well. Most will end up on eBay.
