Got some work done!!!

[KLT185]

Finally had a nice warm day in PA. Got a bunch of work done. Painted stock wheels even though I have a set of new DTW aluminum .125, installed NOS fender with all new brake cables painted triple trees and fork tubes. Also got NOS wheels bearing all the way around grips shock boots light bulbs and painted the cases and installed with new seals! Have installed a butt load of NOS small parts!

NOS fender? Where did you find that? Handle those with care!

eBay had four of them in red and a member from here sold me a red one and a lot of other NOS parts!

So what's that blur in the picture right above all of the nos parts? Did a chupacabra run by or something?

Rear brake rebuild! New wide open shoes and springs! New brake lever springs and pins maybe I'll stop now? Also bought some cheap do it best spray paint matches the oem silver perfectly, but some asshole bought a can and put wrong lid on it and returned it. So I was on final top coat and misted gold on my silver. Luckily I caught it right away and had enough remaining in the silver to fix boo boo!! Can't complain look at my stock 30 year old wheels look brand new and oem!!

Oh my god attempted to rebuild the recoil starter so I have more then two feet of cord! Man that coil spring is a trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro trying to wind it up and get it in place next time I'll spend the 53 bucks from Kawasaki and get a new spring that isn't all stretched out! But I got it done now I can get a good pull of the motor!!!

Looks great! It's good to see a Kawasaki other than a Tecate get fixed up.

Looks like my red kawi may turn black! Got a full set of black 160 plastics and tank the rear fender is in perfect shape and is shiny!! Front fender and headlight guard are mint and tank I may get professionally fixed and lined and painted?? Not sure yet hogmuffin is getting me some repo graphics so it should look nice and I'll have my red set which includes a NOS red front fender and a mint oem tank to ride with!! Just gotta figure how to mount a 160 headlight cover and light to a 185 triple tree I don't want to cut the mounts so I can use red plastics but I don't want to swap the trees out for 110's every time I switch the plastics?? #trikeproblems

Looking good so far.....following;)

I have a weird noise now! It's a sweeky swirly noise from clutch side like the bearing that is pressed into the clutch case is dry. It's not dry there is oil in the case. It goes away when I shift from n to first or into any gear and when I idle in gear it's gone! When I idle in neutral and when I'am under power in gear I hear it. Also if I slightly press the shifter down like just a little bit it goes away. Maybe that bearing is beat? Anyone have any ideals? Clutch grabs good and seems to shift fine reverse is fine? Pissed off not sure where to look first other then pulling off clutch cover and seeing if anything looks worn, just didn't want to burn another 20$ on a seal that are getting hard to find!!
