She lives again
BeautifulLooks beautiful. I just picked one up myself. Any tips on cleaning up the engine in addition to the rest of the body?
I'm really motivated to get it as clean as that. Attached is a preliminary photo of it next to a friend's bike. Its a 62' with just over 8k.
Spargett, I live 90 miles south of you, welcome to the forum. July 26/27, the CJMC show and swap, is happening over in Auburn, Ca. if you want to see lots of vintage jap bikes, and a bunch of into it people, check it out! I don't know if I'll go for sure, yet. As far as cleaning, use a tooth brush and test different thing like Joy soap, comet clenser, wd40, carb spray. Main thing is go slow, so you don't mess it up, Navel jelly works to loosen rust, where rubber gloves, use a tooth brush and water keep, becarefull on chrome it will stain it if you leave to long. Don't pressure wash to much, as it drives water in places it is not good.
