It Lives!!!!Had the bike running the bike running today for the first time in over a year.Once warmed up,it sounded sweet.The only problem now is all the shitty wee jobs to finish off.Never mind better than watching the tv over christmas.

Well done, It's great when you get them fired up again and as you say all them little jobs will be a great release from the usual Xmas bind.

Ok I have had 4 attempts to put this picture on for Baz to no avail and as the lap top could easily be put through the window should I continue; if anyone wants to see the damn thing follow the link (n if you can put the picture on the site for me if you would be so kind) Jan

Update on the Zed,I sold it :cry: ,it was 99% ready to race but a change in plans and £4plus a minute to race(30mins=£100 entry,£10 for transponder hire,£10 petrol plus diesel for van).It was going to be cheaper for me to keep the bike in the shed.Anyway good luck to the bloke who bought(stole) it from me.My new project is a Pre 65 Bantam trials bike(£6-£10 a full days competition :D ).Sorry about the pictures being removed but my photo bucket went mad.
cheers the noo Brian
