Day 7: Rolling Chassis

Once the frame was back and the prep work done, the build can begin! Above is a picture of the little lady in her current state. The swing arm and forks now move superbly after cleaning and repacking of the bearings. It is not really clear in the manual about which side of the forks some parts go on so we are trying to figure it out. Of special note, the small tab on the speedometer broke off when trying to reassemble. Karl welded on another tab and it works marvelous! Superb save Karl! In the picture below it is the tab sticking up. The day before that critical tab did not exist.
