wire saved from the scrap-with prices where they are that,s a tough decision!
set a few parts up in my lathe and mill-if there,s one thing i cant accept- it,s mixed threads.-on a japanese motorcycle all threads should be METRIC-so all non metric threads were machined out and either re-tapped with the right size fastner-or time-serted.
the metric fastners required counter boreing to allow the cap heads to sit flush-meanwhile, some nylatron rod was notched on the mill and bored to take the M8 fastner that will hold the headlamp binnacle in place-in here sits our coils, oil cooler, NOS and IGN arming switches and the tacho.various shiney parts [yokes, engine cases , alternator mount etc.] were media blasted and the shine was removed,we,ll either laquer or paint these parts.
with a big rush to get the frame back to the south coast for final welding and some paint,this left me with most of the wiring loom to lay up and finnish,the font of it is done,and the rest will be terminated as soon as the frame is back from the paint shop.
