RVF Cam coves powder coated

Good paint job done there :thumbsup:

 

Top yoke needed a coat too, bloody keys

 

Tell ya what , that finish is as good as any wrinkle finish you will get from a powder coaters. :thumbsup:

 

Today's progress so far (stopped for a bacon butty)


Will be built by tonight, exhaust is on now too and all wrapped, just forgot to photograph. Will add later too

 

Getting there bud

 

Done

Need to know what this one wire does though before I put the fairing back on?? Put it to a connector on the bottom rad and the fan came on with the ignition, any ideas where it should be?

 

Ta Da

 

Excellent, job well done :thumbsup:. Looking through this has made my mind up to strip down mine completely for a good clean and spruce up when the tax expires. Looks the part that does.

 

Cheers mark

Only took her apart for a clean myself and ended up with a monster

 

Had to make a lower radiator guard, can't be undoing all that hard work can I

 

All finished and back on the road, well happy with the end result.

Few subtle mods that I doubt many would notice but I think they're for the better.

all seals replaced,
new radiators (top & bottom)
Engine fully degreased
Engine flushed
Cooling system flushed

Yoke reprinted in wrinkle
Exhaust hanger in wrinkle
All engine casings blasted and coated in wrinkle
New silicone hoses throughout

Rear sprocket in wrinkle
New oil (thanks Bloke (Carl))
New oil filter
New air filter
Plugs cleaned (not old anywho)
New bearings front and rear
New honda grips
Exhaust fully heat wrapped
Modded bottom fairing to take a stone guard (home made)

Now to ride the fecker and get her filthy again

But first I need a paper day, fingers are falling apart, arms itchy as fk due to fibreglass
finger prints are crumbling oh and a metal splinter in my eye (the joys of wire brushes + alcohol & a late night cleaning session)

 

Have been buying these since I bought the bike, don't be thinking I come into money or ewt,
But then again if I had a pocket wank ........

As we all know 'man with hole in pocket feel cocky all day'

 

how many spondoolies do you reckon you spent on it

 

Father bought the rads and hoses so about £200 in total, not bad for a complete overhaul

 

thats very good that mate i would of thought a hell of a lot more good job as well:thumbsup:

 

Cheers pal. Was a lot of effort to be honest but has tidied her up no end.
Kept me away from trash TV too
