Stroke: Wish you the best of luck with your restoration. Finding Yezdi spares & parts is becoming increasingly difficult even down south, you will have a tough time sourcing them in Delhi. My advice, make a 2-day trip to Bangalore/Mysore and get all you need at one go. May be a bit expensive, but will save you a lot of time in the process.

Since you are a DIY guy, please post pictures as restoration progresses. I have the Roadking owner's manual and posted a PDF copy on the Yahoo Yezdi group, you can download it from there - it may be of some help to you.

Cheers
Teja

Some pics of the engine rebuild process.

Comments awaited.

Looks neat and clean, the crank job seems to be done well as its resting in 90% incline Were the clutch bell (the one where the clutch plate fits) has gone under the leath machine? look tampered a bit. Anyways what is the colour shade you going to use? And the stickering?

Are you sure the sand blasting of engine cases was a good idea? See it to make more damage to the cases

Its doesn't make any damage cases. Just need to put some masking tape to bearing fittings.

Did see it being done for a RD 350 Chassis and looks like the material was a bit more granular rather than smooth ones. The chassis had lots of pore like finishes which the painter had to cover up using 'Patti'. Where did you get yours done if you don not mind sharing it?

After getting motorcycles chassis sand blast i polish it with sandpaper 300 no and apply epoxy primer.

After 2-3 days of primer i polish the chassis with 1000 no sandpaper and apply epoxy black paint without using any putti.

I always try and do to paint max parts of motorcycle myself.
