Tear down and rebuild 3 Years, 4 Months ago  
A couple of posts recently got me wondering who here has ever done a complete tear down and rebuild of a bike.&nbsp; I&#039;ve done one, years ago, and quite a few partials, and continue to dabble a bit with repairs and enhancements.&nbsp; This might be of interest to people looking for help on various repairs.&nbsp; <br /><br />Anyway, thought I&#039;d throw it out as a discussion item.

Re: Tear down and rebuild 3 Years, 4 Months ago  
I tore down a 1984 Honda Interceptor VF1000F three years ago.<br /><br />It did not need anything engine wise, but it had been dropped.&nbsp; needed some structural work and welding, as well as a LOT of body work.&nbsp; Eventually turned out to be a beeeeeeauuuutiful yellow paintjob and custom decals.&nbsp; Really looked good for its age.&nbsp; <br /><br />Hard work, but had a lot of fun with that bike<br /><br /><br />This winter I will be tearing down the TLR to a billion pieces and redoing it as well.&nbsp; Custom paint and a bunch of custom parts, unless I can find a hayabusa before then&nbsp;

Make sure you add a turbo and nitrous to that &#039;busa.&nbsp; :eeksmilie:&nbsp; They are a pretty slow ride until you kick them up a notch or two.<br /><br />Seriously, sounds like fun.&nbsp; Good luck with the rebuild.

<br /><br />you arent fall off with the turbo idea.&nbsp; That is in the plans.&nbsp; After owning a talon for two years I have gained QUITE a bit of knowledge in how to fix turbos lol.<br /><br />But I wouldnt call them a dog from factory though, they can giddyup and move!!!
