In the booth fingers crossed, i know it looked good but it would have niggled away at me for eternity but now i can re build, on the up side the swinging arm’s painted and the vented brake drum looks great

Ok managed to catch up and get back on track not that i had a deadline so repainted the engine and assembled the rear wheel and swinging arm tricky little bugger but all done now, engine is back in frame & swinging arm attached, exhausts and fork bottoms painted, top tubes are DP‘s and quite sexy looking, i will not say how hard it is to fit the circlip or when it ping’s off how hard it is to find it again must be all of 2mm
A spare would have been nice

Loving this - can I ask what chrome you went for on those (lovely) wheels?

hi all
well been doing a bit most evening‘s apart from Sunday and Monday when I spent the entire evening looking for a rivet, no I never found it but the rooms clean again, I now have the triple exhausts fitted and the front end temporally as it has to come off for the fairing to fit, body work is on going will up date as I get it done, I managed to fill the oil feed pipes with clear yellow to represent the oil and it looks quite good for HS reasons I won't tell you how I did it!!
