Post Temporarily Removed - I dont feel like 'Sharing' with the world at the moment!

Looking good Mike, with hindsight theres a couple of things I now wish I'd powdercoated instead of spraying, the yokes and rear brake lever, are a couple I can think of, I see you used soap and water to clean down the engine, you are a braver man than me, I used a baby bath and parafin, and then sprayed afterwards with clean parafin in an old spray bottle, I wouldn't want any rust getting hold inside the barrel or ports, plus those wires coming out of the magneto, treat them with care they are old and easily broken within the protective plastic outer casing, as I found out to my peril, and £35 for a second hand stator.

Keep up the good work mate.

- Rear brake pedal; return spring has been found, and fitted, and teh C-Clip to hold it on, fitted. Still needs a decent washer though; it can ride out & foul on kick-start.

After losing 2 of those 'c' clips on the road i drilled mine and have a split pin performing retaining duties. Find it much more secure with a nice thick washer behind it.

That was quite a journey mike...let us know how you get on when shes back on the trail :thumb:

THAT unfortunately isn't going to happen.

1am this morning, I loked out the window while waiting for the kettle to boil and thought, "The cover's the wrong colour?" I was looking at a 'space' and seeing the pink cover over my other half's bike!
