I also made a shelf unit from some scrap wood, just for parts that will be going on this bike. This avoids them from getting cluttered with the parts that aren't being used, or other parts.
The freezer bags are great for keeping the small bits organized and separated.
Lots of detailed pictures can be a big time saver during reassembly, taking the guess work out of things like harness routing. I bought the separate camera card just for this so I won't have to sort through other stuff just to find what I'm looking for. This bike is really more of a resto-mod, being that most of the machine is staying stock, so much of the bike will go back as it was.
It will likely be 7 months before reassembly starts, so notes of certain things can be a big help later on. Writing down now what parts that will need ordered can save from forgetting something and having to pay shipping costs twice.
Just need to remove the engine, and then the real work starts.

beautiful! you just need somewhere to keep your notebook and 'card now so you don't get it mixed up with all the other notebook's and 'card's!, good work fella, really enjoy following your build's and ride photo's, love the old sr's and xs's, [your sporty's not bad either for a yank!]
Thanks! I suffer from occasional CRS (can't remember shit), so I don't want to misplace the notebook. Yep, not many XL's like mine on this side of the pond.
