oh,, and just to beat Joker,, we use 70/71 ally, not 60/61 like joker

so have made every spacer throughout the scoot, and a bunch of other doodabs out of 70/71

plus replaced the stock JM breather bolts with my own machined out stainless ones..

ok so doesnt look like a lot of progress, but small things like the removal of the forward mounts and other lugs tidied up on the frame, more wiring done, bolts made, bearings fitted etc etc.. but in the pix it just looks like the barrels are back on only and then theres the front wheel, ready to go.. but the color is wrong in the pic, its a deeper shade of red,, was gonna shoot it with the nikon but for now the iphone will have to do....

Is that a FXSTC Low profile laced rim laced to a Dyna Hub? If so, thats a cool setup...I've got like 10-15 of those front wheels laying around....If I didn't hate to lace wheels, I'd probably have some front wheels to run....

lol,, yeah i am a bit freaked on this one,, wanted it to be a feature but now thinking the apollo rim is to strong because of the way it wraps right round the tire and i also think a 120/70 would have run out flatter..

but hey,, well see

Yeah it's pretty weird and not sure I understand it

was just about to get the barrels and heads bead blasted coz man they corrode bad & the paint was flaking etc, prolly due to all the shit I rode mine thro.

Ok so Lisa finds this company and showed me the website, it's some kind of special water mixed with a media, like sand but not. And it's flowed over the parts, not blasted. It's specifically for heads etc because it's non invasive/damaging.

The finish is awesome. Going to run the barrels as you see them in the pic. Still painting the heads tho.

But all future engine work I do for customers, I'll get their parts cleaned this way. It's expensive but well worth it

Okay, i see.
The finish really does look good on them.
It’s nice Lisa doesn’t ride with you but goes out of her way to help you find a place to get your parts done. You’re lucky
