The tear down begins. 73' 750k
« on: August 11, 2008, 06:14:37 pm »
So Im beginning my tear down of my first metric bike. A $150 special that was delivered in running condition. Figured since all of you enjoy enjoy pics and progress, ill document this fiasco on the forum. I spend way more time on this site than any one person should lately ,so I might as well give in. Here are what few pics I have taken thus far.

Judging from the photo, I would have put a damn seat on it and been riding it by now...  :D ::)

Nasty valve guide seal leaks, carbs were laquered up, 4 broken spokes on rear wheel (rear tire is also on backwards), when you jack the back of the bike up, you grab the swingarm/ rear tire and move it side to side about twon inches. Guess swingarm bushings and bearings are a must! And on and on. Definitely not road worthy!
