Picked up the replacement swingarm from the powdecoaters last night and fitted the new roller bearings then fitted it back into the frame.
Next up was to install the suspension linkage ( with all new bearings and spacers ) and shock.
Note to self, next time check to see you've installed the chain runner, it'll save you a whole load of time taking everything apart again to retro fit
Next, loose fit the rear wheel with new sprocket,
and fit the refurbished rear caliper, new braided lines and cleaned up torque arm.
A nice new DID gold chain and JT front sprocket
Then fit the sprayed chain adjuster's and axle markers, footpegs and pillion/ exhaust hangers
So here she is almost complete, tomorrow i'll fill and bleed the rear caliper with dot4, fit the end can, set the chain tension and then await the refitting of the freshly painted plastics and tank with new decals, should be ready to collect next weekend.
