    So I fitted an aftermarket chain slider. It was a real pain in the neck to fit, requiring over an hour with the die grinder but I finally got it to fit.

    So I managed to tear down the swingarm as planned. Hopefully the parts just need a clean up and some fresh grease and will go back in and last another 33 years haha

    So I've been working on some widened foot pegs for this build. Here are some progress pics. They are made from flat bar and just bent in the vice. I've tried to follow the shape of the oem pegs (I still have some cleaning up with the grinder to do). I have machines some pins on the lathe to go through the factory holes in the original pegs and weld them to the flat bar. Should be nice and strong. As for the groove where the foot rests on, I have a 240v deemel type tool that I'll use.

    So a lot has happened since I last updated the thread. I got the rear shock rebuilt and it looks schmick.


    I welded up the footpegs, sandblasted them and painted them. They came up really good.


    I did go harder with the die grinder after this photo to make the grooves deeper for better grip.

    So I cleaned up the front end over the past while. Powder coated bars and master cylinder guard. Pretty happy with how it's come up.
    I still need to clean/restore the fork legs. But I did the fork boots and they came up nice.

    So finished assembling the front end. Just need to polish the front fender and fork legs. The powder coating looks excellent.

    Fitted the new tyres today. Man it's a headache with only tyre levers. Just need to seat the beads.

    Still waiting on my mate to press the sprocket hub back onto my replated axle.... slowly but surely it will get there.

    So I've been spending some time polishing the exhaust. It looks like The factory exhaust has been chrome plated. Can anyone confirm this?

    So still waiting for the rear axle to get sorted.... Rear brake caliper piston has been ordered so once that arrives I'll do the brake system. The bike should be a rider again once those two things are sorted.

    Anyway, I installed the rear Grab bar today, it looks nice.

    Rear caliper has been rebuilt and is looking schmick. Especially with the polished park brake block off plate

    Update pics:







    Hoping to rebuild the master cylinder tomorrow. Slowly but surely...

    And we are all back together. Happy days. Still fairy original, I’ll keep tidying up bits here and there, but it’s a nice mostly original rider.
