ZXR400 L1

Post by SOILZX »

As you may know, after crashing my B1H a few months back and then buying another zxr400, i have decided to make abit of a project out of it.
Not going to big, as i haven't realy done anything like this before, just a freshen up and a colour change.
I started to strip a few bits off the other day, (not much but you gota start somewhere).I started by removing the calipers and brake lines and also removed the rear cowl and hugger etc.
Yesterday however, i hit a snag. I injured my knee in crash and it's been playing up ever since (physio suspects a tear on the meniscal cartlidge) and i now can't walk properly , so am back on crutches again, so i am surposed to be resting up again, but sod that, so i went out to the garage and hobbled around.
I have now removed the rear subframe, so i can clean it up and paint it.
I have the feeling this is proberly going to be quite a drawn out project, due not alot of funds (still have no job) and the fact i'm walking like Quozimodo!!, but i will update as and when i do more work to it and will no doubt be pecking brains when i hit problems and need advice.
Thanks for reading
