glad i wasn't involved in the wiring loom bit... i fucking hate wiring. what time you gonna be home tonight?
Put fluids in the bike today and fired her up. Guess I must have done something right cos she's running.
Still to do:
Chain
Wiring (lights)
Back brakes
Bodywork
Footpegs
If all goes well, might try to take her for a short spin on sunday arvo
Its always great to see someone bring a bike back from the dead, good work
and didn't it sound good with no muffler on! :P though i'm sure after about 2 minutes of riding it around you would hate it.
Off for a test ride......
Full Bike photos please Jules?? whats on the cards for paint mate??
Just came back from a 2 hr spin and all seems good. Bike is almost all done. All thats left is to machine in up a sleeve as I am relocating the thermostat pick-up which used to be in front of the rad.
Gitzy - paint not as yet as can't afford it for now. maybe in a couple of months, we'll see
Much betterer mate, frame looks sweet as..
good shit cheese boy
looks fucking great, nice work.
one suggestion, shorten the can.
cheers.joe.
It's on the list Joe
is ya chain link still on Jules?
Id angle the number plate down a bit so you don't get a fine;)
Have you got any idea what you'll paint it?
Looks good frenchy
It already has been angled down....
As for paint, thinking of a dark purple or maybe even orange. Still thinking about it
Nooooooooooo purple is mine.. all mine.. although it would suit your frame and swinger more than mine Jules.. ignore my gay wheels..

What about the h/light Travis. You're being slack. If you're gonna do it, do it right:D
That does look good though :D
I like the black on the headlight now, it flows on from the frame.
New sprockets arrived today. Looks sweet. Gone 1 tooth down on the front and 1 up on the rear

Front one was a bastard to come off. Even with a breaker bar and someone holding the bike wasn't able to remove it. Ended up going back down to work to borrow the rattle gun. Came off in 2 secs then :D
Vortex? Very nice dude!
Yeah mate. Vortex. They look great. going out for a spin now to test them
Been a while since an update.
Just trying out a design for a radiator guard. Hope to have it done next week. here is what I have designed for it. I'll be putting a mesh behind and it will be all in black.

In the meantime have stripped the bike down again and sent bodywork off for paint. Will hopefully get it back in a few weeks, so fingers crossed
