Going through the new bike and finding all sorts of gems 😂
Spark plug apparently was submerged in the ocean for 12yrs before getting installed in the bike and chain and sprockets were absolutely toasted by the previous owner, rear sprocket bolts were torqued down by Jesus himself, and no amount of impact heat torch or anything could get them bolts off until we decided to just weld nuts to the Allen bolts and even broke welds twice before the last one gave up the fight lol.
Replaced parts and installed correctly to proper torque specs with antiseize backer to make disassembly easier next time around. 🤙
Next on the list is oil change and filter with an upgraded magnetic drain plug. By then I should have all the parts in house to go through the bike and wire the full street legal kit into it. 👌
Still looking for some used YZ blue wheels before I pull the trigger on tires.
Then the last 10% will be odds and ends and cosmetics.
