sounds great to me too.

I've been driving very defensively in town as there are a lot of CBA drivers around.

A spectacular looking DT! Love the "YBU?" license plate. 2 q's: what tyres do you run, and where do you get your petrol tank and seat covers?

Tyres

affter a while running with the catspaw treaded tyres I wanted to fit something akin to the original yokohama block pattern type, I eventually found them here

The rear is

Ensign Trials Universal 3.50 x 18

Front

Mitas Trial ET-01 2.75 x 21

other possibilities are Heidenau K67 ? but you wont get a 4.00 in the back? so you'd need to stick with 3.50

Petrol tank cover and seat cover were both new old stock and you just dont see them often at all, they came from ebay

Tank cover is CEET an American firm

Seat cover is 'Chalks Racing'

Pretty sure 'Kenda' do something like too but we cant get them easily in UK

Had a little 'nip' last year so i just thought i'd check the damage...it was pretty minimal with just a couple of rub marks on the piston, rings were changed as a matter of course
