Street Warrior

Well after a few days of grinding, priming, painting, assembling, and
reassembling it's alive! Ready for the Santa Cruz mountains ride this
weekend!

Frame is painted matte bronze with a matte clear coat and the swingarm
is painted SEMI-FLAT BLACK
with matte clear. I like how the color came out
and should look good with the usd fork color.

After I get the usd front end back, with the black front wheel, from
CN racing the bike will be pretty much complete and ready for regular
street duty. While not as pretty as the ccc ultimate motard I have, it
definately has its own good looks and should not attract unwanted
attention from h8ers.

Also thinking about going with a veypor digital tach on this bike and
redoing the rear light/plate setup to clean it up a bit.

Street Warrior Rebirth

Decided to completely rebuild my street warrior motard including a
paint job for the frame and swingarm. Here is a picture of it from
last week after a few hours of stripping the bike.

No spark figured out

Well I took apart the entire $400 bike to paint the frame and
swingarm. With that complete an dry it came time give the motor a once
over before install in the refurbished bike. It was left sitting due
to no spark so I started by testing everything and it came out with a
bad stator. Just removed the flywheel to inspect and low and behold
the red pickup wire was just hanging there! Look like it was run
incorrectly resulting in the wire being damaged and then coming
dislodge from the pickup. This will be and easy fix to save the ducati
stator but for now I will just replace it with our spare ducati stator
to get it up and running.
