The to-do list:
Engine:
Clean up the engine.
Check and quick-clean the starter.
Pull and rebuild the water pump.

Check the neutral switch.
Replace the timing belts.
Replace the shift shaft seal while it's easily accessed.
Replace the coolant tube o-rings and elbow gaskets.
Set the valve lash.
Install the new Dyna ignition.
Rebuild the carbs.
(Maybe) rebuild the tensioners.
(Maybe) replace the valve cover gaskets and grommets.
The rest:
De-rust the gas tank.
Refurbish the better of the two wiring harnesses.
Rebuild the forks.
Replace the wheel bearings.
Replace the steering head bearings.
Rebuild all the brake components.
Replace the brake lines.
Drill the rotors.
Mount new tires.
Up in the air:
Turn signals.
Fenders.
Body work.
Just a few things to do yet, lol!
