Re: The NSR....the build starts.
Been in the shed all day with some Gunk, Citil Bang and a load of toothbrushes..
I dont think it turned out to bad..
How many bikes come out of the factory nowadays with this stamped into the crankcase!!
My Radiator soaking in a big bowl of soapy water
and if I pile it all up the I am not so scared of it....
Powdercoat and paint...
I gave the frame a going over but ran out of degreaser, broke the calipers down as well and puzzled over removing the wheel bearings.
next up is to finish degreasing the frame, start polishing out the scratches in the swingarm and start to clean up the stuff in the scarey pile!!
