NEV Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 A few small jobs to do, clean and petseal the tank, one overall and final polish of the brightwork. Then hopefully find her a new home, What ye think? You've managed to do a cracking job on that restoration, mate, nice one, although I do also like the original 'nekkid' look it had too!!
Knight3179 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 Her list is as follows Replaced engine with younger lower mileage one 25k Clocks read 48k but kept original engine for spares Only swapped cause of mileage and a broken exhaust stud NOS polished footrest hangers NOS rear grabrail Polished fork brace,sprocket cover, genny cover, oil pump cover, rocker cover Pods installed Replaced exhaust, recoated headers, (PJ1 great stuff) Replaced all bodywork with original, Repainted frame, hammerite, was before had sandblaster and compressor but not great but no rust Braided lines front and back New friction plates Complete service Much more like greasing parts etc, so it's good as it can be
2 Wheels Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Bloody good job done there. Where ya get the belly pan or did ya have it allready,,,,,,just wondering ! looks good
Knight3179 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 No had no belly pan, bought from a fella from ebay, got tank front mudguard and pan from him, not bad, the pan i had to fibreglass on the inside to fix a crack, but can't hardly see it, So hard to come by can't be fussy He sent the tank with a locked cap on so that was fun to get out,lol
