    Went to work today and took the chopper with me to sandblast it.One thing i did forget was the camera to take a pic of the sandblasting unit for Aussie(will post a pic ltr). I blasted all the bike and brought home the expoxy primer and applied 3 coats to frame,tank and motor. I then made a suicide shift and mounted it. I still have a little bit of work to do to the forks then i will expoxy it and the gearbox.
