VT250F "Silver" part 07: the tear down

The time has come. With most of the bike looking the way I want its time to tear it down and start sanding, painting, cleaning and cleaning again all the pieces of the motorcycle.

The steps ahead are going to be the most time consuming on the project and I will be going into detail as I complete each of them. But the tear down was fairly straight forward, simply unscrew a bolt and remove the part. Putting it back together however is going to be a little bit more complicated. Anyway below are pictures of the bikes progression through today's tear down.

LET THE FUN BEGIN!

"well this isn't road worthy at all"
