So after I finished the seat restoration I placed it back on the bike for a bit of motivation.
During the tear down i labeled the factory wiring loom and took photos to document as much of the bike configuration and fitment as possible.
Keeping it budget DIY i opted for paint stripper instead of media blasting. had to do a few application coats but it was impressive stuff.
My Bike did not have original plastic covers and i was not really interested in replacing them, So I made the decision to remove the bracketry and mounting points for them and the airbox with an added weight reduction benefit. I intend to fabricate some basic aluminum side covers..
This is a custom Resto-mod project. With the Zongshen CG250 swap the electrics will all be updated to modern 12v LED and Digital display.
Next up will be tackling the fuel tank...
