August 24: TheClean up starts.

As I am not that great a Harley mechanic or sheet metal fabricator (Jr. is), the task of removing years of dirt, old oil and other stuff that will not be mentioned here, from several pieces of my "new" custom bike, falls to me.  Thus, having brought home numerous pieces from Curt's house last night, today I started in.  I cleaned the inner and outer primary, transmission, transmission base plate, starter, solenoid, primary chain, compensator, and clutch hub.  All were filthy and required liberal applications of Gunk engine degreaser and plenty of elbow grease. In addition to the years of dirt, someone in the past had used liberal quantities of silicone on the primary gasket surfaces.  What fun...but I got it off.
