I spent yesterday afternoon polishing top yoke, I would of got Mikey to do it but i needed it done so i could post of a big box of bits to be anodized today!! And as Royal Mail is in turmoil at the moment i thought it would be better to do it myself. Front wheel is in now so are the down pipes, I have made a speedo bracket out of carbon fibre. The plan this week is to fit rear of exhaust once i have fitted oil filter, Make mount for oil presure gauge. And make all the spacers and mounting bracket for oil cooler, and maybe fit headlight. But i must admit i am starting to get a bit concerned about my sanity because of what i am spending on it!!!!!!!! And wondering if it is really worth it :club

Wash your mouth out Brian.

We all want to see it finished.
