Finally I picked up a RN, its in pretty decent shape there are things that need to be addressed Paint for one it is purple. This is not my favorite color and kinda irks me so today brian and myself got busy tonight I will be posting some pics first we stripped it down neither of us dealing with Yamaha’s before wernt shure what we were in for we had it down to shaft pump and ride plate all parts cleaned and bagged in an hour. Engine, electronics, pole all the brackets, fuel system foam all came out of the engine bay every thing in there but drive system. Then we began sanding there wasn’t the best paint on it not to diss anyone but the clear was coming up and now is being a pain, we took care of that DA and wet sanding the upper deck and hood. The pole is going to stay black for now and I think it will permanently maybe new clear. The color will be a blue from Audi as to the name I have to check I forget exactly know it looks amazing and is going to kick major but when it is done! this is only the pain as for mechanical i do not know as of this point what is gonna change i think a steering system, pipe, intake grate, ride plate. and trim in time thats what i can think of right now. Anyhow Here are some pics I am sorry if there are a lot of errors in this its late and I have been up since well way early.
