The tally so far... 1 can of primer, 1 can of paint, 1 set of steering stem bearings, and a lower chain roller. I've also replaced a few nuts and bolts and some grease to pack the bearings. Total cash outlay, $60.00 (so far)
I was concerned about replacing the bearing in the steering stem, but after doing some research, it was a lot easier than anticipated
This in not meant to be a restoration, more of a repair / maintenance of the bike. Doing this gives me the piece of mind knowing I was able to go through the bike, and correct anything that needs attention. As I put the bike back together, I'm able to clean the years of gunk, and make sure its ready to be thrashed next season.
Next on the list will be to get the engine cleaned and reinstalled along with the electronics. I will also be servicing the suspension with a fluid change.
This has taken longer than I thought it would, but at least progress is being made.
