Well it’s been about 7 months since I bought Aspy and now it is finally done…..well the word “done” is never truly achievable. I have had a lot of fun working on this little project and now I can even buy food again.
I have been through most anything I could take off, if it wasn’t repairable, paintable, couldn’t be polished or cleaned it was replaced with new. I had to repaint some of the body parts, my bike is an 86 and I had the colors shot with match gun at paint store and mazda’s Joy brown was the main color and what was originally decals (inset color), is Ford dark rosewood. I did the fairing trim, trunk top, saddle bag tops and the doors on top of shelter.
I took all the wire harnesses and either cleaned them in the ultra-sonic cleaner or replaced blades in the plugs with correct factory style or factory. Then each plug/connector was spayed with de-ox and then had dielectric grease applied.
I bought all new chrome bolts from Honda for the engine and all other bolts from front to back where replaced with stainless wherever I could ( a few bolts were of a fine pitch I couldn’t get in stainless).
So any way I just want to thank you all for the support and hope to get many miles of ride time out of this old toad.
Thank you
