The bike will be back from auto spark this week ,the only other thing I need to do is address aoli leak coming from the clutch cover :banghead: I'm guessing I must have got the main seal wrong, didn't see that coming and I hope it's as simple as stripping and changing that seal. I'm also wondering i...

I can do easy light work so I fit this tank protector today and got the old girl running sweet, new battery, fuel, clean plugs and she will start, only just ticks over barely running for 1 or2 minutes then you can try small increase in throttle and when she's going she's running beautiful IMG_202304...

Thanks for the offer Mike, not sure if I want them tbh but I would take them if you were to sell at 550 euro, not meaning to offend, but I'd be buying surplus , regards Rob

I'm still here, not much happening as my surgery not doing too well but I'm lucky to have got this far with, a little help from my friends,, same on the car . I won't be riding or fixing for quite some time but I'll keep moving in the right direction, the closer it gets I still have the passion.

Back and forth, getting a professional auto spark go through it, lucky I got some good peeps around me to do any wrenching pretty much as my right shoulder surgery has blown a gasket , my physio genius banged me up to 15 kg cable training at 6 mths :,( anyway I hope everyone is really enjoying these...

Just put the indicators on the back and the old girl is taking shape now , happy days

Thanks for the positive feedback, as far as transferring bits to the new tank , I used a new black rubber flange seal under the fuel cap, original stainless screws as I couldn't locate and purchase new ones. A new crush washer under the tap post. The original green seal with the pump / sender attach...

I had to go with silver plated fixings on the fairings as I so far haven't been able to find any black anodised screws

I've also fitted some new black mouldings to the bottom edge of tank and front edge of the new mra screen.

I went with the later model 900 ss mirrors, I think they might be more functional and look pretty right, swapped the fuel tank internals to the freshly painted tank as well.

Some progress

I have been busy reworking the paint and happy to say it's probably more of a 95% on a bad day now so I will bolt her up and put the indicators on, I might just put the original mirrors on as they're in excellent condition. Hopefully she'll be rideable very soon, I'll post some updated photos soon a...

Thanks randtcastell, the paint is at best 90% atm so I may revisit some panels in the near future or after my next surgery. I'm keen to fit the nos indicators and finish her up but I'm guessing I'll backtracking a little on the painting, I have a spare set of decals. The 2 big fairings are sweet, as...
