Short video on cleaning up the frame and getting other parts cleaned and ready for reassembly.
First things - clean the dang frame. Years of road grime had to be removed before I could get on with the restoration of the steel subframe and aluminum frame & swing arm. The aluminum parts were anodized and that old, damaged coating had to be removed before I could proceed with proper repairs & restoration. Pretty happy with the results.
From now on, parts will be going back on. I bought all new bearings for the wheels, steering and swing arm/rear suspension. Got new valve seals, piston rings and a whole bunch of fasteners, grommets & other small hardware too.
I'm not affiliated with anyone, but IMPEX Japan is the bomb for parts - prices are good and it's all NOS/OEM stuff at aftermarket prices.
