Please take the seals out, you can probably reuse them but the groves get dirt and corrosion in them and this is what binds the pistons and you loose feel and capacity, use a 90 degree pick to full clean out the seal grooves of dirt and corrosion then pack with red rubber grease and rebuild.... you will be sorry if you cut this corner... promise 👍 I do this every 2 years on my bikes and you would be surprised how much crud comes out and how much better the brakes feel and how easily the pistons move afterwards 😍

I think the main reason all the nuts and bolts came out with no breakages is because they were all still set to the original factory torque settings. I re-framed a little yzf r125 last year, as I put it back together I used the online manual to torque ever nut bolt and screw. I was really surprised on how low a lot of the setting should be. The manual also specified the bolts that need thread lock.

I don't think anything you put on that polisher short of a grinding wheel is going to do much to those casting lines. You'll need to start out with files and or a dremel, grind the casting down then work up to polishing. The issue you'll run into is you'll never really be able to match that fine textured surface so you're going to be looking at polishing the entire part to get a uniform finish. This is going to entail sanding it all with progressively finer grits until you can actually polish them. It's going to be a pretty big job and I'm not sure the polished look is what you're interested in or not.

Nice! Really like what you are doing, awesome bike too! Just some random things, going to watch this episode now; ceracote is a super nice coating, but I would not coat the cylinders/cooling fins with it as it isolates the heat quite nicely! You could coat the exhaust with it inside and out, to keep the bike a bit cooler (my experience with bikes with exhaust close to frame like Ducati, Husaberg 70 degree etc). If you want to keep the uncoated look, only have them coat the inside of the pipes.

That 'strange' height adjustment bar is to compensate for the change in ride height that occurs when you adjust the chain. Because the adjuster is eccentric it not only pulls the wheel further back, but it will also move the axle up or down every time you adjust the chain. To keep the geometry constant, they added the height adjustment.
