I'm finally in a comfort zone with my H1. All that is left to do is enjoy and maintain it, until something breaks.
The knowledge provided here with tips, advice, Vendors, comments, build photos, etc., helped me to succeed.
Special shout out to mraxl's site and the Moo videos, but everyone posting on this site played a role.
A recent 100 mile ride to attend the Two Stroke Extravaganza, gave me confidence in it's mechanical condition. My longest jaunt to date.
It gets a daily after dinner ride and a little on the weekends, but rarely over 30 minutes. The bike was clean from the initial tear down, but with an annual concours event this weekend, I did a partial strip down to get rid of any rusty bits caused by the damp, salty, ocean air.
Large pieces were a new rotor, shocks, signals and stems. Don Fulsang did my gauge restoration. I refinished the lower forks, rebuilt the caliper and placed stainless bolts and locks on the rotor. Stainless brake pipe and Goodridge stainless lines. New sprockets and chain with new nuts and locks at both ends. I repainted my controls and center console. Still not happy with the sheen, I'll give it another go when I find a better black. I couldn't bear to buy the wrong controls available and just R&R. But that's half the fun I have working on this motorcycle. It's asking how, or figuring things out. Finding a way, a material, a solution.
Several recent posts that helped were individuals that refinished their lower forks, painted their controls, the LED bulb upgrade, so many posts that made me feel that I can do this too. All I can do is make a mistake, fail or break something at the worst. I learned to ask first if I'm unsure.
So again THANKS to everyone here. I hope you enjoy the photos of my partial refurbishing and how my H1 sits now.
