"I know what i have, $10000 an oz." Lol. Man it would scare me to disassemble things as completely as you do. I guess that is what shop manuals are for but with those vintage bikes, which i am considering buying one an 81 750F, I would wonder if there are parts for them. When you showed that fairly pristine pickup filter screen I might have been tempted to stop there even though I can sure see the value of going the distance and really seeing the internal condition and cleaning it all and refurbishing the whole thing. Thats the way to do it so you really know what you have. One thing I would do is use plumbers grease instead of vaseline (which may be the arguments online you said we were having) due to its effects on o rings and rubber. But you said you have had good luck with it over time so I'll shut up. Great job. Thanks for showing everything the way you do.

The vasoline vs oil though, i'm not arguing one or the other or whatever, but unless you disassembled all motors and stuff you did this way, you don't really know if it's right or wrong. I do think vasoline has a low melting point, so at the very least it's good for a cold start and should then mix with the oil and seal the stuff up allright.
