Firstly, some photos showing how negleted this bike was:
The usual crap that collects behind the front sprocket cover:
Dismantling is the easy bit:
Just look at the piss poor attempt at respraying the frame by the tit that sold me this Bandit:
Rust, rust & more bloody rust:
Below is another piss poor attempt by the tit, at fixing a tiny 'weep' on the petrol tank; yes, that was a blob of ordinary paint:
Not sure if my solution to this will be any better than his over time, but... There's 3 or 4 layers of that stuff on there, plus it was resprayed afterwards, so will have to wait & see:
So once everything was taken apart, a few bits were sent off to the powdercoaters:
The motor was stored away while the cleaning up of all the other bits was being done:
That'll be it for now, but before I go here's a piccie of the freshly powdercoated frame:
More of it soon... :)
