Piggy,

I used to use a professional product, that was called something like slip ease, but Googling it brings up all sorts. :shock: :shock:

I still have some on the shelf if you'd like some?

Whilst searching I found this guide that might be useful... http://www.socalcustoms.com/Shop//vinyl ... ctions.pdf

As the decals were quite small (subtle) I just whacked them on dry - no fear :twisted:

I did think about running another HARRIS decal along the top/back of the seat unit - but decided to keep it real simples :!:

Thanx for the kind comments chaps :wink: As it nears completion, I'm starting to get nervous :!:

Just a bit more wiring to finish off then I can try the motor out. Also need to bleed the rear brake as it was bone dry and needs a bit more fettling to get all the air out.

Its got a 1978 Z1R lump and has be sat idle for several years - probably just a standard motor?. I do NOT know how it runs (if at all) but I've had the sump off to clean the oil pump gauze (not too mucky) and also set the valve clearances (which were pretty good - just a couple needed doing). The compression seems real good so hopefully she'll be okay :|

Another point which can only be checked on the hoof - the rear shock was rebuilt and due to that JMC (still not sure about it) I had to get a beefier spring - which may prove a bit stiff???? I've lost a couple of stone since the build started too. One good thing is a new spring is only £35.

The kickstart is pretty useless as it hits the rearsets, so it will need a decent battery :evil:

As for registering it, that will be a laff :shock: But there is a temporary "PLAN B" - I'll run her on a spare Z900 V5 which came with the project :lol:
