XR Rebuild




Recently I acquired a 1994 Honda XR650L. It is in pretty sad shape. Second gear is out, countershaft is stripped where the final drive sprocket attaches, missing bits here and there. So I am blogging the rebuild to hopefully entertain and educate. I was once asked if motorcycle repair was a chore or a zen-like experience, and I replied that with most repairs, it is zen-like, getting in the "zone". But sometimes (usually making things from scratch to fit) it is a pain. I have been surprised at how well this bike came apart.
