Title: How I spent the summer/spring/winter ( Mrs. sno-duc's 620 )
Post by: sno_duc on August 24, 2009, 09:18:33 AM
As some will remember from TOB, Mrs. sno_duc decided to try offroad riding. Unfortunately she did so on her monster. Both have recovered nicely.

take off the side covers and reroute the wires there.
shorten the cans and get rid of the silver caps
ceramic coat the exhuast pipes black
powdercoat the headlight ring and mounts black
powdercoat the rear brake mount, front lower fork /brake mounts and front brake centers black

oh and loose the yellow cable ties on the bars

powdercoat the headlight ring and mounts black

+1, work on the write-up and you are there.  Great rebuild [thumbsup]

What rims are those?  I don't immediately recognize them.

I know this is kind of an old thread, but I noticed you are using Sato rearsets for the S2R/S4R (right?). Are they a direct bolt-on? Or did you have to modify something? I'm runnin' a '94 M900, would this also work for me?

Really nice bike by the way!!!

I thought I had ordered Sato's for a 620, when they arrived lo and behold S2R/S4R. After looking I figured out a way. Pulled swingarm pivot shaft, machined some plugs that press in ( 0.001 tight ), machined an end cap. Works well.

Good eye for catching it.  [thumbsup]
