Next update!  Started priming and painting.  Got the tail end mocked up with a new undertail fender made from sheet aluminum.  All thats left now is make the bracket to hold the ammo can, grind a little on the frame, prime and paint the frame, swingarm, shocks, and rear brake caliper bracket.  Then it needs the seat to be covered and she will be put back together!  Once im back in the states ill probably break down and have it powdercoated in the next year or two.  But for now this is where she sits!

Getting close to finished.  Time to start running the wiring and find some new relays for it.  Oh and drop off the seat to be upholstered.  Here are the pics from todays work.  



Heres a before and after my wife made.


At least shes back on two wheels.  The final PITA part will be the wiring and bleeding these old ass brakes.

Gotta love italian spaghetti..... The wiring is just.... so.... wtf!  Well it at least works.  And I now have my ignition switch and lights on/off switch right where i want them.  It will be cleaned up when I accomplish the next step of the project.  Plan: Single rear shock with re-routed exhaust.  That will probably have to wait till winter though.
