Work and Working Conditions

I need a space to work on the bike. Jesse has graciously offered up his garage, but as he is currently in the process of finding a new place to live, I'll need to look for a more stable environment.

For now I am using the sun room behind the cottage as a work space. Its cramped and basically open to the elements, so it is far from ideal.


Current bike status:
I've purchased new braided oil lines and cooler looking (louder sounding) pipes off e-bay.

Tank & seat are off. The tank looks to be in pretty good shape, but the seat is beyond repair.

The back fender is off of the bike as well, and it turns out to be a custom deal (read: pain in the arse). I have the stock front and back fenders, so I may choose to go with that.

I've been trying to remove the oil tank, which is bolted to the battery holder, which is rusted to hell. I'm going to need to buy specialty tools for this shiaza.

For the rusty stuff, I've used an acid based solution on some random nuts and bolts. Works like a charm.



Also, here is a pic of the 'new' pipes, and a shot of my 'workshop'.
