A guy at work wanted this out of his garage and told me about it. I ended up with a project I hadn't planned, but it should be fun. I had foot surgery last week so I'm not on the bike in these pics.
We put it back together enough to be able to get everything happy electrically with leftover parts I've had laying around including a Gen2 subframe as the original was hacked up to be a street fighter. I have the complete rear section including bodywork, lights, etc and will convert it. I'll probably run a fiberglass Gen2 3/4 front as stock fairings are expensive. This is the first fire in years.
I dug up a few more parts from the bins that will be used.
I ordered a battery that will fit the stock location and some used throttle cables as the ones on it were longer to reach the dirtbike style bars. I switched them back to normal. Does anybody know what stock routing is for Gen1 throttle cables? Also, it appears I'm missing something from the high idle linkage as the lever doesn't reach the cam on the throttle body. A pic would make this obvious. Maybe there is a bushing that broke off?
The goal is to go 9's for under $2k actual cash outlay. Granted the used stuff I'm putting on could have been sold but it seems I don't do that if you look at my shop lol.
