And the cleaning continues

Back at it again today with the WD 40, Brake Cleaner and Gunk Engine Degreaser.  The swingarm, originally chrome, was hiding under layers of old oil and dirt.  Part of the chrome has pitted and is beyond help so we will de chrome the whole thing and paint it.  The rear rake caliper (billet aluminum) came up pretty good as did the brake pedal and brake cylinder.  Today Curtis also determined the cylinders and pistons are in pretty good shape so we'll just install new rings and put the motor back together.
