TheBrown57 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Step one: Find a house as I am homelessPowder coat rims, remove plastics and hand polish everything I can and clean it up in general. Plan on riding through the winter so nothing to drastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRMN8TR Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 My winter project is to burn as much firewood as I can to empty out the wood shed. Then I can move some toys in there and make room in the garage for a winter project next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donkason Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Finishing putting my VTX black together. I got a little occupied since I discovered track days.

ScubaCinci Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 I'd like to tear down my WR250 and clean it up, lube it, etc. Haven't decided if I should take it on or not. Never done such a thing before so odds are good that I'll end up with extra parts and/or a very large paperweight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donkason Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 We should have a spring thread of who actually finished their winter projects.Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Nothing major for my bike, just a few upgrades and maybe finally add the 2nd fan kit to mine that I've had a couple seasons now. Wifes bike may get a new exhaust, tune, and a little less gearing unless she has her heart set on a new bike instead of a new car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2fat2fly Posted March 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'm bringing back a dead thread here, but this is one of my winter projects. I just finished putting this together today:It's a 1995 ZX9R. It's still 899cc but I massaged it a little. Nothing major, just enough to liven it up. Stock cams, bumped compression a little bit,ignition advancer, ZX7R (1991-1994) valve springs, etc...The flatslides will stay on it when it's put in a bike. I still need to order some bolts for the head cover and change out the adapters on the airbox for the flatslides to mount. It's just sitting there right now.Currently I have no bike to put it in. I'm going to put it in my engine cabinet with the others until I can get a bike built from the 92 ZX7 frame I have sitting here staring at me.

Gixxus Christ! Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 I managed to get the motor mostly built for the cb project, got all the parts for the tl, and built a nice workshop in the basement. TL still needs paint, the basement bar project isn't even on paper yet and I got another bike over the winter that after tires and fluids will be ridable till I finish the other two.
