Sweet! Nice project bike. The front end crust is probably from the battery. Can you see into the crankcase past the rod with a bright light? Be sure to drain all the fluids before you drive it. The diffs and such might have water too.

Got em. Let the fun begin.

Nice bit of carbology! Helps take the what to many is mystery out of the process.

Thanks for having me. A great forum is built on participation and from what I've seen this is a great place. I'm picking up 4 blue KQ 300's in the morning. They're in various stages of decrepitude so the plan is to build one. Gathered lots of info here already, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
