January 29, 20169 yr Author Cool, well I'm sure we will see how they stand up to all weather use in the coming months I spose. Going to try and get a few hours build time in tonight and tomorrow I'll grit blast the fuel tank and get it ready for paint.
January 30, 20169 yr Author All new bits n bobs fitted today. And two coats of British racing green with a black base coat ready for flatting and gloss, ignore the fag ash
January 31, 20169 yr Moderator Love the finish on the engine side covers, enjoy setting the engine up with those filters, been there and would swap out the airbox as a very, very last resort. But the turd in the pool for me, is that spedo. uggh. Move the key or go keyless and site it in the ig switch recess at a push but even then...
January 31, 20169 yr Author I know what you mean bud, if I could I'd mount it on the side like I did with Betty, but sadly that's the only place it can go so I can see it. Might look better when the rest of the front end is on????

February 2, 20169 yr Looking good buddy. I love how clean the engine looks. Id love to pull my engine out and give her a makeover but with show season starting soon i cant be bothered. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 9, 20169 yr Author So all is going well she's starting to look more like a bike again but I'm stuck, still waiting on the seat unit to arrive and so far the tracking info states that it's had two failed collections as the parcel wasn't packed and the other one was that the sender wasn't at the unit to open up shop! So a slightly snotty email sent stating I want it dispatched tomorrow if not I shall be naming and shaming him.
February 10, 20169 yr Author Middle of January, found out that it has now finally been dispatched and had a big appoligy from him. Just hope it get here for Friday so i can get on it
