Stopped by to visit the old bike today. She is almost completely disassembled, with parts sorted to be packed and shipped or delivered to the specialists for rebuilding, cleaning and painting.

Ummm, wait, I only brought it in for an oil change! grin





Inside the transmission



The kick starter assembly:



Back end of the engine case, sans clutch assembly:



We all stood around and talked about the bike:



Rear end:





Axles, centerstand bolt, generator, and few other bits



The electrical harness:



Tank



Front suspension, disassembled



Cartridges seem to be leaking



Same with the rear shocks:



More assorted bits and pieces:





This R90 is going back together; I can hardly wait for mine to get to this stage.

It's a little odd to still see the wheel in the clamp on the lift with no motorcycle attached! Is a that "placeholder" for use of the lift?

Yes, Bill, it does look pretty strange. I think they just hadn't finished the dis-assembly and it was a good place to leave the wheel. grin

Thanks for the project report.

Bet you can't wait!
