Hello everyone, 
As you may recall I had a small mishap on my way back from Sturgis this past summer and now that I have the bike back (what is left of it) and my collar bone is now mostly Titanium. I am ready for a rebuild.
The old girl was stripped to the frame and it was sent out for repair as the steering head was slightly bend. This should be back in about a week or so.
I want to replace the oil pressure and return lines coming to and from the frame reservoir to the engine.
Would anyone recommend simply buying a new set from Yamaha or going to steel breaded hoses? If so any supplier in mind.
The front forks are toast, I found a set of xs650 i am rebuilding. No problems there. I've also found a headlight assembly and I going to purchase from Vanen the gauges and more than likely the gas tank also.
Here is a link to some of pictures, work in progress...
