Part 2 Unpacking

Can't wait to see what goodies are in this box, but I have to get it off that huge pallet first!



Some careful pushing, and a little finesse with the floor jack should get the job done.



Success! Now to have a peek in the box...



First thing I noticed is an envelope with the Certificate of Origin. Also, these new metal framed boxes are smaller than the old wood crates the Jap bikes used to come in, but the soft metal bends easily. Looks like no damage though.



There is a box containing all the essential nuts, bolts, owners manual, parts catalog, and other small parts.



The cardboard stripped away, and we have a motorcycle!


Nice, good looking Cheng Shin tires, pretty good packing, and the bike looks even better than expected. My son't first comment "SWEET!".


Ann air powered butterfly wrench zips the 30 or so bolts holding the box frame together away in a jiffy.



The seat looks really nice... Perforated, wide, and soft!

Looks almost like a motorcycle Mummy!


My son poses with the newly freed bike...



The rear shock is disconnected, but this should be close to bottoming.


Approximate ride height with shock connected.


More to come!
