Got the frame back!

Took the frame to Boise last week, and picked it up this afternoon...WOW!...very impressed with the work that was done on it.  Epsco did an excellent job on it, and they said that it was one of the best they have done (they probably tell that to everybody!).  We tried to get it as close to Honda red as we could, but non the less it still came out awesome.  So here it is in all it's red/orange glory!




So now all we need are the bearings, and we will be able to start putting it back together.  I think the hardest part will be trying not to scratch it when putting it back together.

Well let us know what you think, and any suggestions you may have on the rebuild, and keeping it scratch free!

Until next time!

Frame repairs

Well not much to post right now, I took the frame and sub-frame to Vic's and him replace a couple stripped out nuts.  And as usual here are a couple pics to show the progress!

First is the main frame nut, this nut is for the left side gas tank mount


Next is the sub-frame, this nut holds the silencer onto the frame


Monday we are taking the frame to the powder coating place.  Justin wants the frame to be red, so I want him to be the one to pick out the right color...I afraid that if I pick the color out, it won't be what he wants, and I want this bike to be his just the way he wants it.  I'm proud of him for taking on this project, it's really been fun!
