Motorcycles

I blogged about working on motorcycles as a hobby in an earlier blog. I still have the GS750 because the rust in the tank was a bigger problem than I expected. I tried to repair the rust with a product called Metal Rescue but didn't have much luck, so I don't recommend it. I bought and used another product called Caswell Epoxy and the results were incredible. The inside of the tank has a clear layer of epoxy encasing all the rust. I highly recommend thinning it out with a little more than 1oz of Lacquer Thinner to get to spread over the entire surface. Now I have to address the pitting on the outside of it with some JB Weld and then work on the paint job. I might just be able to sell this thing in a few weeks.
