How did you prep the frame? Did you end up sandblasting it, or just sandpaper? What grit? any special treatment for rusty areas? Thanks in advance.

[@Fixin2Ride]

I would have liked to sandblast the frame but it's expensive these days. So I too a scuff bristle brush on my drill and scuffed the paint up really well and I used 200 grit where I couldn't get with a drill. The sanding took care of any rust areas . I then followed up with a degreaser and then a break cleaner and compressed air.

Nice work! Just curious, what happened to episode #9, or did I miss something? :)

[@Fixin2Ride]

Had a problem but it's uploaded now

[@basilglade3872]

You should have painted the frame something other than what you can find on stock KLRs imho.

[@Fixin2Ride]

Yeah probably so, black is cheap though and just looks good IMO.

[@MrDartak]

Are you going to make a new front fairing. Im getting ready to do a 100% rebuild on my bike. Im going to a rally look but trying yo stay close to the original look.

[@Fixin2Ride]

Yes I will. It's already finished and you can find it on the klr650 Facebook page. Videos to come

[@curlingcheriseheidelberg4501]

Whish I had the skills to do something like work!

[@Fixin2Ride]

Start small and you'll develop the skills!

[@ronnathatch7883]

Do a TW200 next!

[@Fixin2Ride]

I've actually done one in the past but that was before I was recording things.

[@RogerAlcon]

next please.

[@Fixin2Ride]

Next video is up!

[@lettyhippler7607]

Are you going to sell or keep this bike?

[@Fixin2Ride]

Not sure yet, the original plan was to sell it.

[@caladuka3580]

Too much for a KLR, theyre supposed to be ugly.

[@Fixin2Ride]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder so they say
