Years ago, I polished the frame on a Ninja 750 that I owned and it took me forever to get it done. I will have to try using the wet sandpaper trick Pat! Thanks

Last night I started scraping the 50 years of crud off of the carburetor. I had purchased a carb rebuild kit from OldMiniBikes warehouse a month ago or so and finally getting around to installing it.

I finished rebuilding the carburetor last night. I purchased a gallon of carb cleaner with the basket in it to let the parts soak. It works pretty good. Well it better for $27.99 at Autozone. LOL

lets try this again. Pic didn't show up for some reason.

Does anyone know why my pics aren't showing up? I'm doing it the same as I always have and all of the sudden they look like broken links. :-(

I am attaching this pic as a last ditch effort until I understand what I'm doing wrong all of a sudden. If it isn't the medium sized pic, please understand. Thank you, Pat

I know how everybody around here loves pictures. (Including myself) so here is some progress from this morning.
Here's a before and some after pics.

I still have to apply the new decals, install the new air filter, and add the new gas line....oh, and a new spark plug.
