Just remember that you have to enjoy the process of restoration. Don t push yourself too hard in restoring the motorcycle. Just have fun with it. Set your mind free and don t let the deadline bother you. If you want to have more fun during the restoration process, get your friend to come over and help you out. Just like restoring vintage cars, restoring vintage motorcycles will mean that you have to look for hard-to-find parts. You need to remember that vintage motorcycles are no longer being produced by the manufacturer. This also means another thing, which is spare parts are also no longer being manufactured. For every part you take off, you need to inspect the part and take pictures of it. This way, you will be able to know which part needs cleaning, repair, or replacement. The pictures will serve as a reference for you and it will also help you determine how to put everything back together again. Now that you organized the parts for your motorcycle and you listed down which part needs replacement, the next step is to get the parts, right? You also have to be patient about it in order for you to turn a seemingly junk motorcycle in to a work of art that you can be proud of showing off in the showroom. You need to remember that classic or vintage motorcycles were made a long time ago and because of this simple fact, it will require special care and upkeep in order to keep in it good running condition. If you re unable to build a part by machining it from a solid billet, you may want to try getting or building a gas fired furnace, mould boxes, and green sand as well as other tools you need for a foundry. With these things, you will be able to melt and pour metal to produce your very own parts for restoring your motorcycle. During the engine rebuild, there is a chance that you may need to find replacement parts for it. This can take a while and if you really can t any original replacement parts, get it fabricated. The last step is to put everything back together. This is where finesse will mean a lot. Be careful when you are putting everything back together in order to avoid scratching or damaging anything.
