Hey OP,

Kind of a random question, but when you're doing all of this work on your bike, do you leave it on the side stand or try to get it level using a bike stand or something? About to do most of the same stuff to my F3 and curious what worked for you.

And what manual is that in the binder?

Looks like quality work so far

Thank you.....let me go thru the project and I will see what I need....mostly lots of labor..just to give some decent look back...as right now I got the carbs cleaned up and radiador painted...I am polishing the rusty headers back to mirror finish....

The pipes have all ceramic paint blasted off of them that's why the have that look its just bare metal you are looking at. Its Not hard to do either just time consuming unless you have the right tool like a blasting booth. But you can also see all the welds on his pipe unlike you can yours
