      Not far away now, waiting for rear disc to arrive. Have to decide what I am doing to do with it then. I'll pop some pics up when its complete (sort of) . Considering putting it up for display somewhere if its wanted. Meanwhile picked up a pw80 for grandson as he has outgrown the pw50, so that's to be gone through when I get it out of the van. Selling the 50 should pay for the new one hopefully.

          Mostly finished now, brakes to bleed and actually put fuel in it. That can wait until the spring. Better pictures if the sun comes out and I am home

            Just let me know where to wire the funds and I'll pick it up this weekend 😋

              The bike has come out really well, very pleased with it. Wont be selling it (sorry Calum!) but need to decide what to do with it in the new year. There are a few things I want to go back on and improve but nitpicking really. I am thinking of going over the red bike in a refresh to replace nuts and bolts with original fixings. Sold the pw50 in hours, lots of interest as soon as I listed it and paid for the pw80 and a bit more. Last busy day today so will be stripping carb off the 80 in the next few days to get that running properly for grandson. Hoping to get started on the tdr250 next, just repairs (fork seals, brakes, wheels) ready for the spring.

                        Yeah that's lovely.

                        I think it's one of my favourite colour schemes for the DT. A really nice colour. Looks fabulous in the sunshine.

                          @Calum Can agree on that, Endurance Blue is my favourite looking DTR.
