Awesome job, the more you look the more you notice real attention to detail and a cracking example.

Neil - thats a beauty.

Look forward to seeing it on the road - how much longer to finish - I was thinking of using the Pre German meet up in Cambridge as a fettling run - it could serve both our bikes if we time it right...

Fitted rearsets and linkpipe to exhaust, just waiting for carbs, filters and 5/8 bearing support, they will be here Thursday when my mum gets back from the States. Then MOT and I'm finished.

That link pipe is a neat solution to what I presume was a boot/zorst issue with the rearsets fitted. Slightly more upswept improves the look too.

Fancy getting that onto the club stand at Donington in June :?
