Finally got some time to fiddle about with the 600!
... it's in rather a shit state...
Still, I pressed on and began some reassembly. Battery on charge and waiting on a few parts and may be able to fire it up in a week or two... or at least try to fire it up.
I still think it will need more or less every bearing replaced (I already did the steering head bearings before it went off the road). I have new wheels so I probably won't need to deal with those at least. I'm guessing the only other one is just the swingarm bearing right?
Before the bike was put off the road, it seemed to have a coolant leak out of the channels in the head... I'm hoping this is just my imagination but I'll find out soon enough
If it eventually turns out to be mechanically ok, then I'll begin prep on the cosmetics
