I stopped by BMI and picked up two new wheel/tire combos with bearings, used but good condition especially for $15 each, new spindles and tie rods and installed everything. Now with everything installed, I had to lower the shocks a bit so they're not in too bad of shape.
I went ahead and picked up a throttle cable/spring kit too. I figured it was worth the $5. They agreed with you guys that I have a 30 comet...apparently that 20 stamped on the side doesn't mean it's a 20.
Also picked up a pretty decent full face dot motorcycle helmet for $25. All in all including a can of Comet lube and a couple of bearing ended up around $100 but I have piece of mind.
Next step is the back half swap motors and freshen up the TC...hopefully it goes a little better than the front.
I'll be looking for a how-to on the right way to align the front wheels...feel free to link me.
