A Yamaha Dirtbike from the 80s Undergoes Awesome Restoration (67 pics)

This man kept his childhood bike from when he was only 12 years old and lovingly restored it. You should see it now.

 

This was taken a few minutes before the tear down process.
The front fender has been missing, I found a used one on ebay for $25
After the quick hose down at home, I realized I needed high pressure to get the 30 years of grime off of the frame.
After I already had been cleaning the engine for 10 minutes, I stopped to take a picture.
Replaced the rear shocks with some Chinese knockoffs. Can't complain at all for $83 a pair shipped. They raised the bike up an inch or 2, and it feels much stiffer than the old worn out shocks.

Disassembling, repainting, and reassembling is not a 'restoration'...

This looks nothing like the original, its not restored. Its also not from the 80's its a 70's model. Pity he did such a bad job, it could have been done awesome and been worth something.
