Thanks, light is kind of crappy in the garage for any good photo's. I like the Uni Pods for sure. Did some adjustments up to carbs while they were off.
Clutch work next I guess. I bought a shift kit from Randy to install while in the area. OH, and polish the clutch cover while it's off... :good2:
The crash gave me an opportunity to clean up and inspect things along the way. Scored some blue dots for 62.00 off a 2002 FZs 1, a nice bonus is they have almost new EBC pads. On going project...

George,
I think the low lighting worked well, any more light and it would be like taking a picture of the sun at noon.
Nice work :good2:
