Posted February 4, 201114 yr Hello all! I thought I should introduce myself before I leave it too long and forget. I am restoring an XJ 600 after 10 years in storage with the intention of using it for commuting and generally running about. It is my return to biking after about 5 years off and is nearly ready for the road, but not quite. It's also my first restoration project (minimum effort due to time and cost ) I have written up my exploits on a blog. I have tried to write up the downs as well as the ups as I think its important to be honest. I hope I can help someone with my experiences, but it would be nice to have a working bike to give me some credibility! Looking forward to being part of the community!

February 5, 201114 yr Hi and welcome to the Y-O-C Roland nice bike you've got m8-have you been introduced to Foamy yet
February 5, 201114 yr wow, thats exactly like my bike, just less rusty, and less abused... and so much nicer welcome to the asylum, as mention above i am foamy
February 5, 201114 yr Author Thanks for the welcome! I had not realised I could post pictures yet. Foamy, it has some rust and the odd dodgy fix, but I just hope it will get through an MoT. Hopefully will eliminate some lines of enquiry on the troublesome engine tomorrow. Might even fix something! Will let you know how I get on.
