About two years later than I'd planned, finally wheeled this out of the garage and got her fired up - thanks for the help tlc.

Got it from Rick Brett three and a half years ago and ended up taking it completely apart. Resprayed in gold as I was fed up looking at blue ones!

Main worry on start up was whether oil was getting through so had some in the petrol as well. As you can see from the video in the link below, I think I needn't have worried!

Still some fettling to do. MOT and registering next.

it is nice to see one in yellow and a really nice example it is.,i must admit it would be a fun piece of kit for those summer days. its a rare thing these days but that whiff of 2 stroke smoke still passes through the village on occasion.

I know what you mean about the 2 stroke smell.

It gives one flash backs.

I run about the ward on my AP50 !!
