Alecs XS 650 Summative


for the handlebars i had to  remove them from the bike then take the throttle and clutch off and put the signal switch and the new clutch on the new chrome bars and then fixed up the throttle  and put it on the bike too then had to disassemble the signal switch and lube it scrape away any rust then put it back on the bars and it was working well and lastly i had to adjust the tension on the throttle cable


then on the gas tank and side covers i had to sand them with 150 250 600 then 1000 then i put 3 layers of paint on the gas tank and 2 on the side covers then i put 3 layers of lacquer on both of them


on the front suspension i had to disassemble the shocks and take the old fork oil out then take out the old springs and put in the upgraded damper valves but befor i did that i had to drill six new holes in the fork piston then i was able to reassemble the forks and put in the new springs and the new fork oil then run the forks back through the triple trees and attach it back on to the bike
