I think i would just clean that one up and ride it as is, there is just way to many ornaments out there now, made to be ridden and not displayed as a trophy, my own outlook on things only.

Nice to see an old bike that still looks like on old bike :D :wink:
Hopefully Steve,you'll be able to clean it up without losing all those years of maturing like a fine wine.

Exactly what I was about to post - spray it all over with Wd40, get it running like a clock, leave it like it is and ride it, save yourself a fortune. Pimp it out and spUend a ton of money on it you won't want to ride it any more.

Got say - that bike will need a few £££££££££££'s to get it to immaculate condition :!:


Just laquer the b*****d and ride it for a while - see how it goes :twisted:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!
