The previously rebuilt AT3 has now been un-built, down to the rolling chassis. Majority of the parts will be up for sale on eBay here in the next few weeks, but I'll be keeping the rolling chassis for a future project.

Update on the street tracker from this past Saturday. Rode it on the street for the first time today, it did great besides the clutch being toast which I expected.

Update on Version 1 of the "yellowjacket" AT2 Street tracker project. I'll revise a couple small things here and there, but overall it's pretty close to being finished. I'll probably take it down and make everything look good this winter or next spring.

The final installment of the Accord clear coat "restoration". It's not pretty by any means, but it makes the car look much better than it did and won't stand out as much in traffic.

Got the CB350 running! Need to fix a couple small things before it's on the road, but that should happen this weekend. I did ride it around the yard after recording this. This is likely the first time this bike has run this long in over 20 years.

    You could touch up the frame with a brush and a small tin of black paint it's better than spraying for getting into those tight hard to spray places I recently painted my Yamaha SR500 frame I actually had a couple of attempts before I was happy with it I paint striped it then blasted it with a small sand blasting gun and before spraying it knowing there would be places that would be difficult to reach when spraying I did those place with a brush first I laid the paint on too heavily and it had runs and it curdled up a bit so to save a lot of time restriping it I took it to a local blaster and had him remove my first attempt And he suggested the same thing I'd done paint the difficult parts with a brush before spraying it I made a painting stand from an old exercise bike I welded up a bracket that mounted to the exercise bike's seat post and ran threaded rod through the front lower engine mounting holes in the frame and through my bracket and I was able to swing the back of the frame up to be close to vertical and painted under the frame and while the epoxy enamel paint was still wet swung it back down horizontal to do the top, it worked well Brush painting has it's place it will pump paint into places spraying won't reach I've got Hodaka dirt bikes with cast steel cylinders and always paint them with a brush you can get right in between the fins with the right brush better than you ever could trying to spray them and you don't see brush marks on the cast metal

    Pretty cool it has guages and headlight, tanks can be repaired. One of my tanks was fairly rusted inside but cleaned up great just soaking with vinegar then coating with 2 cycle oil. That one looks doable. Just do one at a time

    I think you'll find what rare parts that are available people are pretty proud of. Though you can find parts available though not oem which will work. I have recently picked up 3, 2 250's and a 360, none complete tho I think the 77 250 i can have running fairly easily. You might look up a guy on here named Dale Sweger, very knowledgeable and has a bunch of Yamaha enduro videos. Best of luck

    In the day it was very common to replace the Phillips head bolts with Allen heads.You could buy kits with every size needed so they are a period modification. Hooker made very cool looking after market exhaust pipes as did several other manufacturers.
