Teardown


Wow... the formatting of this blog crap is already beginning to annoy me. Regardless, I shall press on.
Immediately after getting the bike home, I started tearing it apart. It was in pretty rough shape, and a lot of the cables and hoses were corroded, cracked, and dry rotted. There was no repairing them, they'd simply have to be replaced. However, I've learned from working on my SV that if you have to replace something, you might as well replace it with something better, stronger, and lighter!
I took apart as much as I could, and also removed the carbs so they could be cleaned/rebuilt.
