Nice work.  How long did it take you?

The strip down took a couple of days. But was only about an hour or 2 a day, so maybe 6 hours or so, gonna take a lot longer to put back together. Need to clean every little bit before it goes back on the bike. Heading back offshore on Friday, so frame will be powder coated hopefully the start of December. And bike rebuilt start of January.

Frame off to powder coat this morning. Should have it back next week. Very excited to see it looking nice again.

Ok. Got the frame back from power coaters. Looks brilliant. Unfortunately looks like I'll be offshore for Xmas making sure we all have enough oil and gas for a while. I'll ge pics up of the frame and rebuild when I get home. Hopefully before the new year

It's not too bad. Just take it one step at a time. Each individual piece is really easy.

Ye. I've been told that about the colour from a few people. Just thought why not get it as bright as possible. Haha. May be too much though.

Fitted the engin into the frame today. Took about 10 minutes. Fairly impressed. Unfortunately I managed to strip the threads on the upper rear engine mount bracket. Bloody thing. Need to drill the bolt out. I'll get pics up ASAP
