as a matter of fact the new f4i I got was literally in every piece you could put it in. So last night I drove up to Dallas to my friends shop and we polished the frame, mounted the motor into the frame, Polished the swing arm, mounted the swing arm, polished the subframe, mounted the rims and subframe. put the front forks on, the clip on's too. got the bike 85% rideable and realized I didnt have a triple tree anymore lol so we had to stop there :P
I went to harbor freight and bought a front stand. Got home and started to replace the speedometer drive. I swear some of the bolts were put on my bike 15 years ago by hercules himself! I busted my knuckels pretty good trying to get the right side caliper off. Ended up breaking my 1/2 inch socket! Good thing for extras
Also had to take off the right side rotor to get the wheel back on. But in the end everything was fixed!



I will trade off where i eat for the comfort of working inside any day of the week.
