                @Calum probably like Marmite some for people, but I'm daring, it will all make sense when finished.

                Thanks, where to? Be good to pull in some newbies ๐Ÿ™‚

                          @Louis-James Interesting and unusual colour choice, looks cool and no doubt when completed all the colours will tie together. Is this going to be a show bike or an occasional rider???

                            @NINJA hi, yes it will be a show bike of sorts but
                            on sunny days will get a nice ride ๐Ÿ™‚
                            Problems with a 25year old bike is not all parts are available anymore,
                            Thinking of getting an enduro / laner that can be plastered on mud and dropped and banged hha

                              @Louis-James Once restored it will be too good to be thrashed around and in reality using her in that way makes all this effort seem pointless really. You are right get a second bike to be used and abused and leave the restored classics as eye candy!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :winking_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

                                        @Louis-James Such a beautiful job.

                                        We really do have some talented members on here!

                                        I'm in love with this build. The attention to detail is just immense.
