Well, went over the rear of the chassis, cleaned and lubed swingarm, rear brake,
found a seat that might work, am now on the front.  The forks were a hassle getting apart,
but all that's been done.  New oil (went with 20w), seals looked good, but the front brakes are a mess.
Lever and resivour are toast, the calipers need a rebuild kit (both pistons need replacing also) too.
All the pads are good, as are the chain and sprockets. Got the key to work the ignition and helmet lock,
just oiled and messed with them, but the gas tank cap, I had it work once but can't get it off again.

Hoping to get the chassis sorted out this week, carb parts coming in tomorrow.

I'm digging the lean look, need to find some real small turn signals, and a set of bars like the ones on my F model.  Next week should be interesting.............
