Battery tray chop and dismantling of fork

A nice day here in Stavanger, time to spend some quality time with the SX200! The chassis was brought out in the sun, and the frame was stripped for all remaining screws/items that was still fixed to the chassis. Rear badge holder, some screws for the rear plate, and some screws remaining on the floor was taken away.

Since the scooter is receiving a TS1 setup, the battery tray needs to be chopped away.

Further on, a full disassebly of the fork was carried out, dismantling all parts. The parts were degreased, sadly so was also my camera... so no more pictures of the dismantled fork today.

The fork rods were to my surprise bent, so new ones need to be sourced for rebuild. I've already ordered several parts rebuild parts for the fork, but most likely I've not added those. Anyway: Fork is now ready for sandblasting.

So is chassis.

Chassis and motor

The chassis seems very robust. It has been sandblasted, showing no signs of severe rust.

Chrome ring edition...

Curved forms, the panels are really thick! 

 Sound underneath...

 Nothing to fix back here either...

Okey here too.

 Very sound!

Frame seems very straight.

Brake pin in place. 

 

The new parts cleaner was used for degreasing all engine parts... Original SX motor showing. 

Part cleaner really doing its job.

Breakage in gear housing.

And this crack is probably more severe: One of the Engine Mount holes is potentially cracked, rendering this part useless. No worry; a new SIL motor block was part of the deal.

Okey.

Okey.

 

Engine and clutch components get same treatment. Clutch will be replaced, missing parts will be exchanged.

Now: Ordering parts.
