I really wish I had the time, money, knowledge, patience, and drive to actually do something like this... Alas, I am a broke, lazy retard....

It's not that hard to do. There is plenty of research material out there too.

Take lots of pictures so you know how it goes back together :whistle:

The reassembly begins :dthumb:

I installed the steering neck with tapered roller bearings, installed the rear swingarm, the rear shocks, rear brake pivot and spring, rear brake pedal , the bracket for the oil tank and the battery box.

It's a lot of "fun" installing all the rubber grommets too. Tomorrow the engine goes in after I install a better clutch actuator. ( factory for '73 was 4 spline, I'm putting in a later model 6 spline. )
