Title: Project: Hannah Resurrection
Post by: jacob92icu on August 20, 2013, 07:18:29 PM
So,

As most of you know, Hannah went down and didnt come back up. That is how she has sat in my garage waiting to be well again. So, I have finally started working at it again.

These are the damages that happened to the bike. I waited a little bit to get going, it has been a few weeks since the crash. I started to gather parts to fix my bike from Patrick a few days ago. Heres what I got first:
- Clip on bar
- Clutch perch
- Brake rotor
- Forks
- Brake caliper
- Exhaust gaskets

Look at how badly bent the brake rotor was:

Got the new rotor on today, sucks that it is black, but whatever its straight!

Got the wheel on as well, but pictures will come later.

You can pick up a stator side cover to make that side look better.
When she's road worthy, come over and we'll see what else we need to change out.

Got the forks, clipon, wheel, new brake pads and caliper all installed. Only damages left are cosmetic as you can see on the tank and tail plastics, ripped the decals off in preperation for filler.

I also fitted the front brake braided brake line, will probably do the matching rear soon. I havent bled them yet so I wont be riding for a little, but they look pretty cool :)

Also spent an hour or so bending the headers close to their original position and reinstalled them with new crush gaskets and it sounds good again!!

Yea, Ill be putting an add up and taking offers as soon as I fix the cosmetic damages so that I can get the money to buy the bike we just finished at Adidas.

I am just going to call it an 06 cause it has mostly 06 parts, but the parts come from many different years.

Patrick, you should clear those black fairings so I can see them soon, I think I will like those better.

Put the first layer of body filler and glazing puddy on. I know i could have popped the dent out a little but I'm lazy and just wanted to use what i had.

Got some slingshot decals and Suzuki tank decals on the way.
