XJ650 Build Part 24 - Swing arm / Final drive Restoration

The swing arm and final drive needed some close attention to make it suit the newly cleaned engine. after opening it up and realising how big of a job it was to strip down the final drive I made the decision to leave It put as there was no issues with it. so I just gave it a clean and buttoned it back up! really happy with the outcome with even just a rattle can finish
I will put fresh oil back in when its fitted to the bike again

    My Saturday Morning is now complete!! A Jish Video! My Friend....I'm truly proud of you and how far you've come since the early days of the 125 build. I see a Parts Washer and perhaps a Vapo-Blaster of your own one of these fine days. But you've amassed a grand group of people to help where your equipment falls short. Fast forward 2-3 years, Jish Motor Works will be a reality! Cheers my Friend! Zip~

    @@jishh, i feel like I've been along side of you through your journey. Always learning, and self motivating your self and craft. Always admitting your mistakes and realizing they are an opportunity to learn instead of give up. To better your self and to always look ahead to the final dream. Thinking back to the 125 and all the problems with the wiring and electrics, your color choice, seat design, riding position, stance...you've got an eye for this and the drive to perfect your craft. I speak only the truth my Friend. You're a force to be recognized in the Bike Shed Builder Community. Cheers and Merry Christmas to you and yours! Sean~ (Zip~)

    When wire wheeling springs put a thin rod on the inside of the spring so it doesn't get tangled in the wheel. To get that broken pinch bolt out, put some major heat (torch) to it to help break free.

    OK I came across this video by accident. it's the first time you came up in my recommendations. I have a 1983 XJ650 that I got in 2001 and did some cleanup work on it like this, but mine was not as bad condition as yours. I did clean all the aluminium corrosion off the rear drive but never thought about spray painting it like this. that stuff did a great looking job. I went back to part 1 to see if you mentioned the year of your bike but didn't see it. what year is that one? mine is a little different style with a more tear drop tank and mine has the YICS on it. I retired mine to the shed 6 years ago now as it has become my vintage museum piece that nobody ever sees. It still looks good and was running befoer I prepared it for permanent storage.
