Front Wheel/Forks
The forks were disassembled and cleaned thoroughly then rebuilt with new fork seals and polished to a mirror finish. The tires are Dunlop D404s which provide a great look and feel on the road. The brake hub was completely disassembled and rebuilt after being polished to a mirror finish. New brake/speedo cables were also a must.

Engine
The heavy lifting is done. The engine was repainted with high heat paint and the engine covers will continue to get polished.

Oil Filter
While I was polishing the oil filter cover I decided it was a good time to clean the oil filter. The filter uses centrifugal force to hold any heavy particles to the sides of the filter and out of the flow.

Steering Stem Bearings
Upgraded steering stem bearings are a nice and in this bike's case necessary upgrade. Also installed some new handlebar bushings as most the rubber parts on these old bikes are in need of replacing.
