Starting working on my fork rebuild. Polishing up some used lowers I bought off Fleabay. Here's the right (to be done) and the left (done-ish hahaha):

Nice job. I gave that up years ago. I always ended up slightly denting the edge of the rim or scratching up the chrome. Kudos to you.

Installed the evolution industries clutch kit. Went out today on a couple of test rips. Nice not having burning clutch smell anymore.

It is a Hayden tensioner. I have had no problems and it does what it is supposed to do. Chain tension is consistent.

Do you have profile rims? They're soft as dog poop...

No, Japanese bike with chromed aluminum rims. Also soft as dog poop. I've powdercoated the rims on both of dynas, and I don't want to mung those up either.

Funny thing is a couple of days ago someone at work asked me if I change tires myself on my motorcycles and I honestly said that I'd rebuild an engine before I changed tires.
