    Little bits done, oil cooler fully connected, the pipes were bent, took a while to get them right.
    Oil filter came finally.
    PCV filters on.
    Started seat mounts and ignition switch relocation.

    The 2 most expensive items I need is an exhaust and starter motor.

    Still undecided what tank colour. I'm thinking Matt gunmetal grey. I was going to go black but think that would be over kill.

            @NINJA always the case but haven't gone OCD on this. Its got scratches and scruffs on the engine and forks. And I like it looking ragged

              Lights check on.

              Tail lights seem to have not power, maybe but headlight is on when ignition on. Brake lights not working 🤔 maybe it will when engine is running.?

              Horn was faulty,
              All 4 indicators would flash, so I had it wire in a diode and earth the dial indicator light

                  @rolz82 thanks! I have such little knowledge of this bike (electrics and engine)
                  So many little things I want to know.

                    All lights, switches and horn are on and functional

                    Seat brackets made up.

                    Waiting for my starter motor to arrive.
                    Then decide what way to go for exhaust.

                      Now this would get my attention at a local bike night, any plans to paint it or just keep the flat steel look?

                        @Stevie-Wonder thanks. The tank is painted. In chrome silver powder coat. I was going to go all black but I wanted it to shine a bit

                          Took so many attempts to get the starting circuit to work. Checked everything, earths, relays, switches, batteries, motor and cables.

                          The first lithium battery I bought was total crap, couldn't crank the engine over even though cross reference numbers said it was correct. Bought a shido and works perfectly.

                          Made a numbplate holder + front "number plate"

                          The most exciting part is the exhaust! Cut off about 10kg of the baffles. Shortened the silencers right down and made up the end covers.

                                        It looks raw. Attention to detail is nice too.

                                          @Louis-DT-WR very cool looking bike mate. You have a cool helmet design to go with it? Something like a skull with bullet holes would go well with that bike.
