  1. Front brakes and rear end installed

    by , 12-23-2011 at 04:23 PM (The Wrenchette: A Girl Buils a Roadster)
    The day after I installed my front shocks, Koni sent a recall alert. Thankfully my date codes were easy to access and were outside of the affected date range, so I was good to go. I'm not very far along in the build and haven't bolted many parts on, so it would suck to have to unbolt the parts that I [I]just[/I] put on and send them back. So the build continues.

    I got my front brake calipers assembled, which was easier to do on the workbench.

  2. Garage update, and front suspension & hubs installed

    by , 12-20-2011 at 10:56 AM (The Wrenchette: A Girl Buils a Roadster)
    First, a very important garage update. The floor is done! We finished coating the floor of the first bay, Zac installed the baseboard trim, and moved everything back against the walls. Here's an update pic of the garage before the motorcycle lift and all of the motorcycles moved back into the first bay (they were crammed into the 3rd bay while the work was going on).
