    So its almost ready, front mods.
    Used forks got new seals,oil, boots and fork protectors.
    Swap the wheel hub and sort out a brake hose issue.
    Find a fender in the pile and bark busters to put on.

    Going to do what ever to this bike, maybe some short 2 stroke mufflers too.
    Would like to fab up a sweet single set up some day for it.

    There is a first time for everything lol

    Took 5 hours to swap hubs and true the rim, maybe not bad for breaking nipples lose and reuse spokes.

    Husky spoke wrench with rubber and tape

    1/2 a kick with slippers, no shit.
    Once you have it in the right spot, 1/2 of a full swing, easy to kick.

    Got a new braided hose made and routed like stock. Test ride this weekend.
    On to the 89 next, fork seals and tire and see why it lacks some power.
