yzf750r, stripdown

whipped the fairings off, few broken tabs, some melty bits. nothing totally beyond me and my anathema to fixing plastics and paint.

with em off it was best to get bike power washed, so before:

and after:  blinging eh?

Before:

After: K&N filter too.

Airbox lid screws, yeah after 18 years you could expect one or two going missing. Must have been an obsessive K&N oil or something.

shock from the american lexus breaker got here, it’s sweet.

steering damper time! choices choices choices..

what else? about 7-8 points in the wireing loom need to be fixed properly, electrical tape does not count. the weird plate on the rear of the subframe have been removed, the tank has rusted through at some point and been repaired with chemical metal, not so bad, the tap however will need a rebuild as the petrol just flows out and lastly the headlight subframe is snapped.

all in all not a lot done today. pray for days off soon.
