Came across this video and it's quite impressive.  All old school techniques.

pdxfj,

One of the crew on another Yamaha bike forum mentioned there was a forum/website for these bikes, Soviet Steeds.  Could be a good source for parts and procedures there.

That thing didn't look that good when it rolled off the IMZ production floor... :D


But yeah. Dude does good work.  Wish I had his time and clean shop...

Enjoyed that. Maybe after he sells the bike he can swing an air compressor.
