have been waiting for valves from a member that in the end did not arrive.
so brought some new ones.ive had the seats re cut and engine is back together.next to sort the shims out.
The project is very near the end now.
to bring you up to date on what i have done since i last posted.refurbished and fitted the hand controls.
And have done what was the hardest part of the project and that is paint.The hardest thing was to decide what design to do.
I wanted to try and do something original[not easy] and complement the original look but with an updated look.Which is how i have approached the hole bike.
As i have done the hole bike my self i thought why stop now.These are the material's i used for the job
As you can see ive used some carbon vinyl.Im not that bothered about if it looks like real carbon.The reason i used it was it gave me a textured finish and is Matt.Which i like as a contrast to the smoth and gloss black and gold.I also believe it meets my brief.
Next post should be the fished bike.
turned out to be a bit more than that.
