Updates from today:
Started to rip off the fenders and lights for the wire tuck..


Tucked the wires to the lights over here



And the same over here + a few other ones that were up in the corner


THEN! took out my pistons...AND HOLY f**king GOD!!! ringland on #4 was SHOT! fell out right into my hand...2 chunks came out!



And, sadly, #3 is cracked..


but 2 + 1 were perfectly fine


Same with the bearings, all good. Hardly any burn marks or chunks taken out.

Then, at the most tiring point...I figured id check the mail...and WO0T! i get a present!

Genuine Blitz Super Sound Blow off valve!!! FOR THE MOTHERFUCKING WIN!



:D
Hope you all approve! Still working on it, so expect more updates!
