It bent my screwdriverWhatever it takes is the proper way to torque a front axle. As long as you aren't pinching the forks together out of alignment it doesn't matter what you put through that hole in the axle to keep it steady. I've never done it like you did, but it looks fine to me. Consider the source though. I don't color inside the lines much.
You are getting close to having to start it.
Yeah, it's getting close. I have a bunch of odds and ends to tie up, but my last major hurdle is the gas tank. I had a looksee inside with a boroscope
Seems somebody before me sealed it and didn't do a good job at that. I think most of the peeling is near the filler cap. Looking down the tank
Unfortunately, i can't get a good view on the other half. My plan is to scrape out the peeling parts as best i can, then pressure wash it, then fill it and go. Will have to check my fuel filters regularly
