Get the old Tig welder out and fire it up, splash a bit here n there, rebar had a large tin of paint on the end as I needed to push it down but no spare hands

Throw the seat on for a look see, yippeedeedodah
Coming together nicely Mel.
Steady as she goes there Captain, got a new set of jets shims blah blah for the carbs to compensate for the air filter magically vanishing, need to look at a rear guard, not that I want one but to keep plod off my case, have got some melt your aluminium cleaner that should be fun..... just need to make my mind up regards paint all or paint bits and clean more....
So...
still awaiting the new jets and shims, but managed to pick up a 4 into 2 header today so I can start making the zorsts, new small battery needs a home, so either gonna make an under the seat jobbie or.. or something LOL, rotors and Hel lines here, new C&S +3 back -1 front for a little bit of boogie at the lights, lots of cleaning to do still, maybe tomorrow.........
Played with the rear wheel cleaned, new shiny bits

Zorst day
I picked up a set of headers from Motorcycle Masters in Kewdale
I have coated the 4/2 pipes with heat resistant paint; then wrap will be next then paint the wrap with heat resistant paint again
So today,
Removed old studs and put in new ones, Fitted up the pipes managed not to wreck the new studs!
Once fitted made a couple of stub pieces and fitted them up, welded into place, fitted zorsts for a trial fit
Not sure if I will leave em shiny of paint them feckers as well
