What a time I had taking it apart, cleaning and putting it back together. First time in my life I worked on a bike when it comes to engine (though my work is nothing compared to what you guys are and have been doing or done). Help from members here is just amazing. Big thanks to all of you!

Now it is running and I have nothing to do with it, it is rather boring. I started cleaning and polishing it a bit, removing grease builds, waxing and metal polishing, detailing spokes and tiny parts etc. that too is sort of done. Balance work is to lube all cables, that will be done once my cable lube is here.

Took some shots today, was looking for "Photos forum section" did not find it so posting here.

Yea, I was wondering what chunk of glass you were using.

Looks good.

I can hear the bike run, but have no opinion of what's going on as I've never heard my bike run (yet). Good luck!

Thanks for replying though. Wonder how to make my post attractive enough to have inputs!

It's Nikon 50mm f1.4
