[QUOTE="reepicheep, post: 1361652, member: 104942"] I'll post individual pictures tonight... they are on the home computer... Thanks for the warning on the seat... nothing a spray with silicone lube or armor all won't take care of... You are right it would be good to be able to slide around... I probably should have done the swingarm while I had it off. Much of the powdercoat is worn off, and it's now bare aluminum, so I would have had to strip the whole thing, or paint over both, and when that started scratching up it would have looked ugly... so at the end of the day I just cleaned it up and left it in it's natural patina :) Sounds like those bearings will be off once a year at least for repacking, so I'll have plenty of chances to redo it... does the wheel paint hold up? +1 on the "if it blows up, set it on fire". :) I really did enjoy all the work... though it certainly had it's moments. Splitting the engine was the one remaining "sacred ground" that I had never dared to touch... In hindsight, I probably spent as much time putzing with the kickstarter assembly as I did splitting and reassembling the engine cases and transmission. It takes some thought and planning, but there isn't anything magic about it, and the tools were not hard to find. And you gotta love a job that includes "grill, gas" and "freezer" on the "tools I need" list :) [/QUOTE]
