@Calum cheers man. Its literally a case of getting parts in my hands and making it fit/fabricate parts. I wish fowler's would hurry up, waiting ages for my rear brake parts. And side stand bits

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.

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
Clutch hydraulic line arrived and installed.
Tank painted, I have a decal coming for it.
Ignition switch installed -

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?

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.
Still got to wrap the exhaust
