i repaired and media blasted a 70's yam trials frame for a customer last week he's rebuilding




a few of the welds had cracked round the headstock and at the bottom of the frame round the swingarm mounting brackets so i cleaned them up ,welded & blasted the frame





its cleaned up really nice it gets powder coated nxt week once he's picked the colour.

Good luck with the restoration bro
