Half the success in any
restoration or even normal maintenance on any bike or car is your work space
environment and tools. You are only as good as the tools you use. We aren’t
talking about a whole lot of money here either. If you have the basics and
some specialty motorcycle tools, good shop manuals for the bike, a
parts manual for the bike (this is the
bible for any bike in my opinion) both an automotive and a motorcycle jack,
and best of all, a motorcycle lift, then you can tackle any level of
motorcycle restoration that you want. I also have a 20 gallon parts cleaner
with real industrial solvent, not the crap you buy at the auto parts store.
You should have an organized and clean garage or shop to do a good job. If
you have to spend the first week of your project getting it that way, you
will re-gain that lost time and then some, and the bike will turn out
better. Cost wise for all of this is probably in the neighborhood of a
couple of grand maybe. I spent $1000.00 on a motorcycle lift, 100.00 on a
parts cleaner, 100.00 on a motorcycle jack (craftsman) and various other
tools etc.
