Blasting the R 60/2 air “box”
By Wes Fleming,
1 days agoTook the air cleaner unit to Dale’s in Culpeper. He offered to let me do the work and of course I said yes—I’d rather rely on his expertise than his time, if that makes sense. He showed me how to use the bead blaster and the vapor honer, then worked on his own bikes while I cleaned up the air cleaner halves. The bead blaster was super satisfying—watching that garbage spray paint come off made me happy. Second was the vapor honing—basically the same process, but with sand and water instead of air and glass beads. Now the slide is stuck (open) but I’m working on it with silicone lube to see if I can get it un-stuck. Might pop down to Scott’s in Raleigh to see if some time in his ultrasonic bath will get some of that sand dislodged.
