Hi everyone,
I just got my project bike delivered yesterday! Looking forward to getting started! I will have many questions and many pics to post as I work on it. Long story short: I got my brother-in-law into motorcycling. He has.....ahem... WAAAAY more funds for bikes than I do. I couldn't turn him from the darkside and he bought a brand new H-D Road King. But he also bought this '01 Scout from his brother. He knows I want to retire in 7 years and begin a small side business of working on bikes. So, he send me the bike to work on it for him. That, for me, is a thrill. Here it is:
Anyway, inside the gas tank, there is plenty of rust on the left side. Which do you guys suggest?: 1) Kerosene and washers, or 2) iron phosphate? I have not done either method so feel free to give me pointers on either method.
Thanks! I'll be posting how things go along the way.
