      @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 πŸ™‚

                @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 πŸ™‚
                  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:

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

                                  Can't stop taking pics, think I love doing this build more than the last one.
                                  Need some more parts from fowlers, chain slide, chain guard, correct mud flap.
                                  Exhaust front pipe needs a few small welds.
                                  Front and rear brakes need tidying up

                                  Side stand switch added,oil pump plumbed up, all wired up.

                                          @Louis-James anyone know much about fitting a battery? I just want to do a lights and PV test.. I think you can connect it to the loom r/s of flywheel
