    Re: So who's ready and who's scrambling?

    I will be starting the rebuild sometime tomorrow.

    Let's see:

    Hang bike
    Take everything down to frame and engine
    Rebuild and replace forks, head bearings, brakes
    Order goodies
    Fix questionable wires
    Install goodies
    Rattle-can the bodywork
    Swap tank
    Order and mount tires

    ...and finally, a shakedown run in the new neighborhood!

    Bike is together and safety wired.

    Body work is painted. Still gotta spray number plates and clear. Probably finish that Saturday night. Should be completely done, with body work mounted, by Sunday night.

    Drive down tomorrow night. You can give it your mushroom stamp, autograph it, and then we'll clear over the top. Preserving it forever. I will be a shrine to wasted, unused penises everywhere...

    Umm, Seth, they're plastic, a hacksaw or something would probably work.

    Still wrenching.......well, I mean not this second rather, generally speaking.

    Waiting for head bearings is about the only set back at the moment.

    Paint will be finished by Weds and everything else is ready and waiting for the shakedown run.

    Re: So who's ready and who's scrambling?

    Motard is ready. I had my mechanic install my slipper clutch today while I was teaching -jro- to ride motocross. After sitting in a cold garage for 5 months the RMZ started up 2nd kick and sounded like a champ.

    Slipper installed and tested.
    Anti-Freeze drained and Water Wetter installed.
    New Carbon/Kevlar mudshield installed.

    Left to do:
    Change oil before Friday
    Have tyres rebalanced Friday AM (thx BostonMoto!)
    Install new AA battery in laptimer.
    Check chain tension.

    You have no excuse to be scrambling. You have an entire shop at your disposal.
