After popping off the valve covers and checking clearances, I installed new gaskets. Then we put the motor back in the bike. At this point there will be lots work done for attachments for cables, wires and other fittings.
I took apart the forks to clean and polish. These forks have a stamp that indicates date of manufacture on the inside bottom leg. These were made September 1966: After cleaning and polishing, I also repainted the black dust sleeves in bright silver with black trim. After installing back on the frame they will be filled with fresh 20-weight fork oil.
Got a killer deal on a pair of new Hagon shocks, however I think I'm going to put these on my bike that is currently running, and the shocks on that bike will go on the project bike.
