More parts!

I just picked a couple new spark gloves, a new pair of mechanic's gloves, an 18mm deep socket for the spark plugs (we had a 17mm and 19mm...go figure), and a compression tester. I won't count the cost of the tools since I can use those later.

My first task will be to rebuild the carbs and get those installed, find and install all of the correct handlebar controls, and get some sort of exhaust system for it. The fuel system should get a good cleaning and the wiring harness needs checking. At that point, I should be able to see if the bike will run or not. I've sprayed the penetrating lubricant inside of the cylinders to make sure they're not seized up.


Spark plugs (Advance Auto): $4
